[llvm] [llvm-exegesis] Simplify validation event string conversion functions (PR #82092)

[Aiden Grossman via llvm-commits]

https://github.com/boomanaiden154 created https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/82092

Currently, there are two string conversion functions that convert between strings and validation events. This patch changes the logic to search through a single array of pairs rather than manually reimplementing each function to make development slightly easier.

Subject: [PATCH] [llvm-exegesis] Simplify validation event string conversion
 functions

Currently, there are two string conversion functions that convert
between strings and validation events. This patch changes the logic to
search through a single array of pairs rather than manually
reimplementing each function to make development slightly easier.
