I have never thought about this but it is worthy of consideration. I don't think HEPA would be helpful here. The molecules that cause the flatulence related odor have to be way to tiny to be trapped by any filter that modern technology has produced. Dust or pet dander is something substantial that can be trapped by HEPA, but not intestinal gas. Good thought though. This is an excellent question.

If you make a filter thin and light enough to sit on and to allow movement then it won't be a very good filter and I doubt it can qualify for a HEPA filter. The HEPA filter is a sandwich of a series of randomly aligned filters with small cells in them that catch the particles. These filters create an air pressure backup. This is good because it allows the free particles to be jammed into the filter where they will stick, but if you put pressure on the bag then you will squeeze out that air pressure (in a sound that might sound just like a fart). Besides there aren't particles in a fart that make it smell so objectable, there are gases of chemical compounds. So instead of trying to capture the particles (that aren't there) find some way to neutralize the chemicals in the gases the make it smell so foul. These chemicals are keytones and esters. In the lab we combine specific gases to create the esters that produce an artificial scent in so many of the things we use and eat. If you turn to chemistry then maybe your could find a chemical that can be impregnated into the shorts that either acts as an air freshener or neutralize the worse odors. You don't need my notes below, but others reading this question might. How do you plan on sitting down in those shorts?

Around $20-25 pair and filters are replaceable. Yep, this may seem like a silly question to others, but there was a man that developed an underwear with filters already in them.
