I would like having a global cpu_name_by_type_name() function.
I wouldn't want to force each architecture to provide yet another
string conversion/parsing function, though.

I think we could do that, but with a CPUClass field instead of a
preprocessor macro.
For a reference on existing corner cases of CPU model name
parsing that might get in the way, see this series:
https://www.mail-archive.com/qemu-devel@nongnu.org/msg611813.html
If you are interested, I have work in progress for a generic CPU
model listing function at:
