Building the constant name here "feels" fragile, but I'll trust that the
test suite and/or the compiler will catch us if we accidentally goof up
this mapping. In the interest of simplicity, then, "sure, why not."

Subjectively more pythonic:

special_features = [f"1u << QAPI_{feat.name.upper()}" for feat in features
if feat.is_special()]
ret = ' | '.join(special_features)
return ret or '0'

A bit more dense, but more functional. Up to you, but I find join() easier
to read and reason about for the presence of separators.

alrighty.

(Briefly wondered: is it worth naming special features as a property of the
class, but with only two names, it's probably fine enough to leave it
embedded in the method logic. Only a style thing and doesn't have any
actual impact that I can imagine, so ... nevermind.)

Well, either way:
