// This file enumerates [tailcfg.NodeCapability] values that the
// Tailscale-hosted control plane emits where headscale has no
// equivalent concept yet. The compat test in
// tailscale_nodeattrs_compat_test.go builds the self-view CapMap via
// [types.Node.TailNode] -- the same call the mapper makes -- and
// strips these from BOTH sides before [cmp.Diff]; every other cap is
// compared in full as it lands on the wire.
//
// Each entry documents its purpose (cross-referenced to Tailscale
// source), why headscale does not emit it, and a tracking issue where
// one exists.

// the empirical wire shape where [tailcfg.Node.CapMap] is omitted for
// most peers.

// Caps the client reads from the peer view rather than the self view
// (suggest-exit-node, dns-subdomain-resolve — see
// ipn/ipnlocal/local.go:7534 and node_backend.go:745) are emitted only
// when the peer satisfies the cap's emission condition. This function
// encodes those conditions; the mapper calls it from
// [mapper.MapResponseBuilder.buildTailPeers] and the compat test calls
// it to compute the expected per-peer wire shape.
