[LTP] [PATCH v3 1/1] pty04: use the correct protocol per line discipline to avoid extra packets

Use specific protocol filter (ETH_P_IP for N_SLIP, ETH_P_CAN for N_SLCAN)
instead of ETH_P_ALL to avoid catching unrelated packets like IPv6
multicast (MLD) which cause false test failures.

v3:
- Removes switch statement
