Would something like:
```
unsigned E;
if (Length > 511ULL << 14) {
E = 24;
} else {
E = 64 - countLeadingZeros64(Length);
if (Length > 511ULL << E)
++E;
assert(E <= 14 && "...");
}
return CHERIoTCapabilityFormat::AddressMask << E;
```
not be equivalent and avoid the need to loop 14 times?
(also ...ULL should probably be using UINT64_C(...))
