regex_match_end() calculates string length as "len - 1", assuming @len
is the string length including trailing '\0'. For dynamic strings
(filter_pred_strloc) and pointer strings (filter_pchar), this assumption
holds and allows O(1) constant-time suffix matching.

However, for fixed-size string fields (FILTER_STATIC_STRING) and "comm"
(FILTER_COMM), the callers pass the buffer capacity rather than the
actual string length (field->size for filter_pred_string, and
TASK_COMM_LEN for filter_pred_comm). Because these buffers hold
null-terminated strings (e.g. prev_comm in sched_switch holding "bash"
in a 16-byte buffer), regex_match_end() tests against the tail of the
buffer capacity (typically trailing '\0' padding at offset 13) rather
than the actual string end. Consequently, suffix matching like
comm ~ "*sh" or prev_comm ~ "*sh" fails for all strings shorter than
the buffer capacity.

Furthermore, for trace events like ftrace/print (trace_marker), the
"buf" field is defined with size 0, denoting an unbounded NUL-terminated
string. regex_match_end() and regex_match_end_str() return 0 when len
is 0, causing suffix matching to fail on ftrace/print events as well.

To fix this without penalizing dynamic and pointer strings with an
unnecessary scan on every event:
- Introduce regex_match_end_str() using strnlen(str, len) for fixed-size
  buffers (FILTER_COMM and FILTER_STATIC_STRING with field->size > 0).
- Introduce regex_match_end_dynstr() using strlen(str) for unbounded
  strings (FILTER_STATIC_STRING with field->size == 0).

Assign these match callbacks in parse_pred() when MATCH_END_ONLY is
requested.

Changes in v4:
 - Drop the separate zero-length string fix patch as redundant per
   review from Sashiko.
 - Introduce regex_match_end_dynstr() for FILTER_STATIC_STRING fields
   with size == 0 (e.g. ftrace/print buf) as suggested by Sashiko.
Changes in v3:
 - Split from zero-length string fix into a dedicated patch.
 - Introduce regex_match_end_str() for fixed-size buffers and assign
   it in parse_pred() for FILTER_COMM and FILTER_STATIC_STRING, avoiding
   strnlen() overhead for dynamic and pointer strings in regex_match_end().
