**Description:**
- Adds `component.MustNewType` to create a type. This function panics if
the type has invalid characters. Add similar functions
`component.MustNewID` and `component.MustNewIDWithName`.
- Adds `component.Type.String` to recover the string
- Use `component.MustNewType`, `component.MustNewID`,
`component.MustNewIDWithName` and `component.Type.String` everywhere in
this codebase. To do this I changed `component.Type` into an opaque
struct and checked for compile-time errors.
Some notes:
1. All components currently on core and contrib follow this rule. This
is still breaking for other components.
2. A future PR will change this into a struct, to actually validate this
(right now you can just do `component.Type("anything")` to bypass
validation). I want to do this in two steps to avoid breaking contrib
tests: we first introduce this function, and after that we change into a
struct.
**Link to tracking Issue:** Updates #9208
follow up on #8501. As per the suggestion, the code in NewCreateSettings
is pretty small and not needed as a separate function.

These methods create an import cycle when trying to move obsreporttest
to
componenttest. Deprecating these methods will allow us to remove them in
the next version and move the remaining code into componenttest
