If we ever it this, we'll reach the 24 character limit pretty quickly,
so maybe we should just ignore unknown flags instead.

I guess the fixed size is here to improve the formatting. 24 characters
is pretty small though (you're already consuming 18 chars with
'(kernel,fw-mapped)'), so I'm wondering if we shouldn't plan for more
upfront (64?) so we don't have to change the label column and the
string array sizes every time we add a new label.
