use exact match for illegal path check (envoyproxy#34539)

In our environment, the file system directory is as follows:

Tue Jun 04 22:28:35][envoyproxy#48# ]$df -h
Filesystem                 Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
tmpfs                       77G  104K   77G   1% /dev/shm
tmpfs                       31G  9.8M   31G   1% /run
tmpfs                      5.0M     0  5.0M   0% /run/lock
tmpfs                      4.0M     0  4.0M   0% /sys/fs/cgroup
/dev/mapper/atomicos-root  150G  144G  5.8G  97% /sysroot
/dev/vda2                  483M   84M  400M  18% /boot
/dev/vdc                   1.2T   87G  1.1T   8% /sysroot/home/centos/external

We have a directory named /sysroot. If the envoy config file is the that directory, envoy can not start up.

[2024-06-04 22:28:35.581][3382724][critical][main] [source/server/server.cc:131] error initializing configuration 'configs/envoy.yaml': Invalid path: configs/envoy.yaml
[2024-06-04 22:28:35.581][3382724][info][main] [source/server/server.cc:972] exiting
Invalid path: configs/envoy.yaml

In my mind, envoy should only check the default system directory such as /dev /sys /proc as illegal path.
So it is better to use exact match instead of startwith match.
