How about keeping RS_INVAL_MAX_CAUSES dynamic in slot.c (as it was)
and updating the static assert to ensure the lookup table stays
up-to-date with the enums?
The change has been implemented in v75.

Here are v75 patches addressing comments in [1], [2] and [3].
 - A new function, "EvaluateSlotInvalidationCause()", has been
introduced to separate the invalidation_cause evaluation logic from
InvalidatePossiblyObsoleteSlot().
 - Also, another new inline function "CalculateTimeDuration()" added
as suggested in [3].
