utils: rework fw3_bitlen2netmask() IPv6 mask calculation

The previous code wrote beyound the end of the destination buffer under
certain circumstances, causing possible heap corruptions.

Rewrite the IPv6 mask calculation code to use a safe byte-wise assignment
loop instead of two memset() calls and one byte assignment in the middle.
