Fix: bytecode validator: reject specialized load instructions

Reject specialized load instructions so a bytecode crafted with
nefarious intent cannot read a memory area larger than the memory
targeted by the instrumentation.

This prevents bytecode received from the session daemon from performing
out of bound memory accesses and from disclosing the content of
application memory beyond what has been targeted by the instrumentation.
