Cory Snider f8bd170b2a daemon: validate args in network.New*Filter
Filter-term validation does not belong in the API module. Clients should
not be making any assumptions about which terms the daemon understands.
Users should not need to upgrade their clients to use filter terms
introduced in a newer daemon. Move the network filter validation from
the api module into the daemon.

Split network.NewFilter into network.NewListFilter and
network.NewPruneFilter constructors which validate the filter terms,
enforcing the invariant that any network.Filter is a well-formed filter
for networks.

The network route handlers have been leveraging a hidden 'idOrName'
filter term that is not listed in the set of accepted filters and
therefore not accepted in API client requests. And it's a good thing
that it was never part of the API: it is completely broken and not fit
for purpose! When a filter contains an idOrName term, the term values
are ignored and instead the filter tests whether either the 'id' or
'name' terms match the Name of the network. Unless the filter contains
both 'id' and 'name' terms, the match will evaluate to true for all
networks! None of the daemon-internal users of 'idOrName' set either
of those terms, therefore it has the same effect as if the filter did
not contain the 'idOrName' term in the first place.

Filtering networks by id-or-name is a quirky thing that the daemon needs
to do to uphold its end of the Engine API contract, not something that
would be of use to clients. Fixing up the idOrName filter would
necessitate adding it to the list of accepted terms so the filter passes
validaton, which would have the side effect of also making the filter
available to API clients. Instead, add an exported field to the Filter
struct so that daemon code can opt into the internal-only behaviour of
having the 'id' term match on either the network Name or ID.
