[PATCH v3 12/16] selftests/resctrl: Simplify bandwidth report type handling

["Ilpo Järvinen" <ilpo.jarvinen@linux.intel.com>]

bw_report is only needed for selecting the correct value from the
values IMC measured. It is a member in the resctrl_val_param struct and
is always set to "reads". The value is then checked in resctrl_val()
using validate_bw_report_request() that besides validating the input,
assumes it can mutate the string which is questionable programming
practice.

Simplify handling bw_report:

- Convert validate_bw_report_request() into get_bw_report_type() that
  inputs and returns const char *. Use NULL to indicate error.

- Validate the report types inside measure_mem_bw(), not in
  resctrl_val().

- As resctrl_val() no longer needs bw_report for anything, it can just
  be passed to measure_mem_bw() by the ->measure() hooks.

v2:
- Rebased on top of next to resolve conflict in resctrl.h
