Description

It would be great if the import/no-extraneous-dependencies rule could be ignored project wide but only for certain dependencies.

import/no-unresolved already has this functionality with it's ignore regex setting.

This could also be a potential solution for https://github.com/benmosher/eslint-plugin-import/issues/496

Contributor guide

Research direction
Modify the `no extraneous dependencies` rule to accept an `ignore` option similar to `no unresolved` rule, allowing package names to be excluded from checking.
