Details

Summary

This is a follow-up of D2442. It makes the number of bits to consider
for display in the "peer details" view a constant.

Test Plan
./src/qt/bitcoin-qt -prune=550 &
mkdir /tmp/datadir
./src/qt/bitcoin-qt -datadir=/tmp/datadir -connect=127.0.0.1

In the second instance:
Go to "Help=>Debug window"
Select the tab "Peers"
Click the 127.0.0.1 peer in the upper table
Check in the details that the LIMITED flag is displayed

Rather than having an arbitrary constant, we can make it dependent on the flag that we want to detect up to. Something like:

// check is largest flag to detect up to
uint64_t check = NODE_NETWORK_LIMITED;
while (check != 0) {
    if (mask & check) {
        ...
    }
    check = check >> 1;
}

Update using the largest flag position as the boundary instead of a constant

Note: I reverted the loop direction from @jasonbcox proposal, in order to keep the same display ordering

Add a constant in the enum that indicate the end of the main services range.

While not

for (uint64_t check = 1; check <= NODE_LAST_SERVICE_BIT; check <<= 1;)

No, put it in the enum with a value that define the end of the range that you want to be used for flag (I assume we don't want to display the experimental ones. It's not like this is performance critical and we want to shave off all we can from that loop.

Move the boundary into the service bits enum

No, put the actual value of the last possible flag.

Set the constant as the last non experimental service bit.
No longer filter more than avoiding experimental bits.

Really, if the maximum value is 1 << 23, I'm not sure we need a uint64_t

If you want to keep the same behavior, this should be (1 << 11), otherwise there will be a list of UNKNOWN for flags 11 to 23. If you think there is value in keeping this flag as 23, then please re-verify that this renders ok in the RPC console in bitcoin-qt.

I checked in BU and XT to see if they defined service flags above 1 << 10, and found none.
Even if this is not a strong guarantee, there should not be a lot of bits to display above the previous limit.
That said, the rendering adapts itself to the width needed for display. The maximum I got with a BU peer is:
NETWORK & BLOOM & XTHIN & CASH & UNKNOWN[64].

It is unknown only if it is set. And if it is set, why tell the user about it ?

Plus, Why the fuck would protocol.h care about the qt interface ?

Fair.
