ValidationCurveDisplay can't handle categorical/string parameters

### Describe the bug

Hi,

I performed some optimization on a few models implemented via the sklearn API. For fine tuning, I want to visualize the effect of certain hyperparameters using the `ValidationCurveDisplay` implementation. For numerical parameters, everything works fine. Unfortunately, as soon as categorical parameters (passed as strings) are used, an error is raised.


### Steps/Code to Reproduce


```python
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
from sklearn.datasets import make_classification
from sklearn.model_selection import ValidationCurveDisplay, validation_curve
from sklearn.linear_model import LogisticRegression

X, y = make_classification(n_samples=1_000, random_state=0)
logistic_regression = LogisticRegression()

# put categorical values in param space
param_name, param_range = "penalty", ['elasticnet', 'l1', 'l2']
train_scores, test_scores = validation_curve(
     logistic_regression, X, y, param_name=param_name, param_range=param_range
 )
display = ValidationCurveDisplay(
     param_name=param_name, param_range=param_range,
     train_scores=train_scores, test_scores=test_scores, score_name="Score"
 )
display.plot()
plt.show()
```

### Expected Results

The expected result is a validation curve display separating the values by their category and no errors.

### Actual Results

COMMENT:
> I am not sure, if (grouped) bar plots showing train and test scores give the same visual effect as the "curves"

Visual curve will be a bad way visualizing this information since the line create a relationship between a category and the two closest encoded categories while there is no obligation to have any dependence between the categories. On the top, the ordering will also matter then.

It is a point that I mentioned [here](https://github.com/scikit-learn/scikit-learn/issues/28443) for the PDP. There are alternative plot for that.
