In fact, I'm technically wrong, since the value here just gets masked
and isn't actually a bit field, (similarly wrong will be my comment
further down in my original reply),

However! Since this won't be a valid value, we could still use it and
just special-case this in the `matches_mode()` function.
If, however, we go with an API-breaking route, this is definitely better
implemented as either `enum Mode { Match(u32), Ignore, Fail }` or an
additional "required: bool" parameter... but we need to hand that
through all the layers of helpers...
