So developer said that it's intentional because "dialog doesn't play 
particularly well when resized".
For those who want to make it re-sizable again:
sudoedit 
/usr/lib/libreoffice/share/config/soffice.cfg/modules/scalc/ui/standardfilterdialog.ui
<property name="resizable">False</property>
<property name="resizable">True</property>


** Description changed:

  Some dialog windows (like Standard filter) have fixed size so searched 
results won't fit. Prior to version 5.3 standard filter results were long 
enough to read them without horizontal scrolling because dialog window size 
adapted to the longest cell content. Now I have to either use older version or 
use special rules of window manager (KWin) to enlarge those dialogs.
  Similar thing with search results, initially that dialog window is too small 
to see fully long line but at least it's re-sizable.
  
  Steps to Reproduce:
  1.Enter something long in the cell
  2.Select whole column
  3.Open standard filter dialog
  
  Actual Results:
  Standard filter dialog is too small to see the 'Value'
  
  Expected Results:
  Standard filter dialog is at least adaptable to the value like before. 
Ideally re-sizable.

  I tried newest 'fresh' / 5.4.0.3 version from ppa under Xubuntu 16.04. This 
issue is easily reproducible under most Desktop envirornments (I tried XFCE, 
MATE, KDE) with gtk2, gtk3 and kde VCL UI.
