add osmo_stat_item_get_group_by_name_idxname()

Add "missing" API for looking up a stat_item_group by its index-name.
A subsequent patch, which adds stat_items to the CTRL interface, will
use this to look up stat item groups by object name.

In stat item groups, there are group names, having a number of indexes
denoting different objects. An object can have, besides the index, also
a name that is equivalent to the index.

Apologies for the weird function name, it's still the best one I
could come up with: "group_by_name" refers to the group name, and
"idxname" refers to the name that the object index is associated with.

We already have osmo_stat_item_get_group_by_name_idx().
Other contestants for name of this new function were:

- osmo_stat_item_get_group_by_name_name()
  because there is a "name" instead of "idx", but I find it confusing.

- osmo_stat_item_get_group_by_name_idx_name()
  but I find that the last "name" should be closer to the "idx".
