I'm not sure of the origins of proto_item_set_expert_flags, but I believe at
this point its functionality should be "private" to the expert module (just
haven't removed all calls to it in the dissectors).

Looking at the patch, it appears you need expert_add_info (maybe
expert_add_info_text_format if you want to include the invalid size in the
printf string) and pass it the "item" returned from the segment size.
expert_add_info_text is being deprecated/converted.
