    Reject votes (not consensuses) with >64 known-flags
    
    Our flag voting code needs to handle unrecognized flags, so it stores
    them in a 64-bit bitfield.  But we never actually checked for too many
    flags, so we were potentially doing stuff like U64_LITERAL(1)<<flagnum
    with flagnum >= 64.  That's undefined behavior.
    
    Fix for bug 6833; bugfix on 0.2.0.1-alpha.
