Unit tests for `enableFeaturesFromFlags` function (#6063)

* - exporting BoolPairs CLI func
- added tests for enableFeaturesFromFlags function

* Add a test that uses a feature flag to add change the outcome of code - and test persistence, as that's the current implementation

* Minor comment updates
