create the :44 feature bundle
The FEATURE_BUNDLE_xxx constants in feature.h must be ordered by
version. The 'as_bundles' sort function ensures that all bundles will
be sorted correctly (except for 5.9.5, which ends up between 5.43 and 43).

fix use tests: all versions up to 41.7 are valid
use-ing these versions will load the :5.41 bundle, since that's
the highest one before them.
This also means that we don't need to give hints about why
'use 5.6' or 'use 5.10' fail, because they won't anymore.
