jvoisin cdb57b3843 perf(sanitizer): minor simplifications of the sanitizer 
- Factorize some conditions
- Remove useless `default` case and move the return at the end of the functions
- Use strings.CutPrefix instead of strings.HasPrefix + strings.TrimPrefix
- Use switch-case constructs instead of slices.Contains, as this reduces the
  complexity of the functions and allows them to be inlined, as well as helping
  the compiler to optimize them, as it sucks at interprocedural optimizations.
