validate: miscellaneous Python cleanups

I spent too much time trying to navigate validate Python code to figure
out where a test was coming from. Hoping that it's slightly easier for
the next person, this patch:

* Adds type annotations to setup_tests(), for the sake of code
  navigation.
* Adds comments matching each test generator with the patterns of test
  names it produces.
* Removes an if statement in `register_default_scenarios()` where both
  branches have the same exact code with the same exact very long list.
* Removes NamedDic [sic] and replaces it with SimpleNamespace from the
  standard library (3.3+) which has the same purpose and API.
