When device_property_read_string() fails, str is left uninitialized
but the code falls through to strcmp(str, ...), dereferencing a garbage
pointer. Replace manual read/strcmp with
device_property_match_property_string() and consolidate the SE mode
enums into a single sequential enum, mapping to hardware register
values via a switch consistent with other bitfields in the driver.

Changes in v4:
 - consolidate SE mode enums into a single sequential enum, removing the
   separate ADMV1013_QUAD_SE_* enum and regvals lookup table
 - update commit message accordingly

Oh, I haven't realised that it can be done like this. I have in mind
just to have a switch in the probe, so we don't need to do that again
and again. Otherwise looks good to me.
