Description

As per https://github.com/envoyproxy/envoy/pull/20145, we have duplicative matching logic in core router and JWT filter. This seems a maintenance, testing and security concern. I think with some modest refactoring, we could move this match logic to a common library. This is a fairly straightforward refactoring I think (famous last words).
