[ Upstream commit d777f8de99b05d399c0e4e51cdce016f26bd971b ]
If a field is a dynamic string, get_field_str() returned just the offset/size value and not the string. Have it parse the offset/size correctly to return the actual string. Otherwise filtering fails when trying to filter fields that are dynamic strings.
