filter: Optimize instruction revalidation code.

Since repeating u16 value to u8 value conversion using switch() clause's
case statement is wasteful, this patch introduces u16 to u8 mapping table
and removes most of case statements. As a result, the size of net/core/filter.o
is reduced by about 29% on x86.
