Set __name__ for list validators in rcsetup.

This avoids having many validators all named `f`, which makes profiling
a bit difficult (it appears that repeated validation of rcparams when
resetting the style at the beginning of each test instance contributes
quite a bit to the total test time).  Instead, the list validator
based on scalar validator function `validate_foo` is now `__name__`d
`validate_foolist`, and the list validator based on scalar validator
class `ValidateFoo` is now `__name__`d `ValidateFooList`.
