Update tslint to the latest version 🚀

[greenkeeper]

Version 5.6.0 of tslint just got published.

Dependency	tslint
Current Version	5.5.0
Type	devDependency

The version 5.6.0 is not covered by your current version range.

Without accepting this pull request your project will work just like it did before. There might be a bunch of new features, fixes and perf improvements that the maintainers worked on for you though.

I recommend you look into these changes and try to get onto the latest version of tslint.
Given that you have a decent test suite, a passing build is a strong indicator that you can take advantage of these changes by merging the proposed change into your project. Otherwise this branch is a great starting point for you to work on the update.

Version 5.9.0 just got published.

Update to this version instead 🚀

Release Notes

v5.9.0

⚠️ Deprecations

• [deprecation] Several utility functions from src/language/utils.ts have been deprecated (#3476)
• [deprecation] Linting non-existent files now outputs a warning. This will be an error in TSLint 6. (#3313)

Configuration inheritance changes

Significant changes have been made to configuration inheritance to address a long-standing UX issue around defualtSeverity: #2569.

defaultSeverity defined in a tslint.json file will now override the defaultSeverity value defined in any configurations you are extending.
This means that any rules specified in the base configurations can now take on a new defaultSeverity if you so choose. If you extend multiple
configuration files, the defaultSeverity defined in the last one wins.

In practice, this allows users to, for example, more easily use the built-in TSLint configurations (tslint:recommended, tslint:latest, tslint:all)
and treat all errors as warnings instead of errors.

For more details, see the relevant PRs:

• Override defaultSeverity defined in extended configs (#3449)
• Inherit defaultSeverity and apply it to preceding base configs (#3530)

• [new-rule-option] "temporalDeadZone" for no-shadowed-variable to ignore shadowing in the temporal dead zone of classes, parameters, enums and variables declared with let or const
  (#3389)
• [new-rule-option] "shorthand-first" for object-literal-sort-key (#3607)
• [new-rule-option] Add support for an ignore pattern for max-line-length (#3099)
