I would agree with Michael that tt-Latn is already available to describe
Tatar in Latin script, so that can be used right now.

The only need for variants would be if there were substantially different
competing orthographic systems for Tatar in Latin. In that case, it is
certainly possible to add one or more variant subtags to distinguish those
variants; we do that in many cases. However, we should not move on this
particular request until we have settled the general issue of dealing with
different transliteration schemes.
