tracing/filters: Fix false positive match in regex_match_full()

regex_match_full() calls strncmp(str, r->pattern, len) where len is the
target field buffer size. When len is smaller than r->len (the filter
pattern length), strncmp() checks only len bytes of r->pattern against
str. If those len bytes match, strncmp() returns 0, resulting in a
false-positive match where a shorter string in a fixed-size field
matches a longer filter pattern.

For example, a 4-byte static string field containing "abcd" matched the
filter pattern "abcdefgh" because strncmp("abcd", "abcdefgh", 4)
returned 0. In this case, @len does NOT include '\0' because it is
fixed-size array.

Fix this by returning 0 (no match) early when len < r->len.
