But a config check fails,

There is no max_term_size setting for flatcurve.
There is a typo in the current documentation, that will be fixed. https://github.com/dovecot/documentation/pull/1296
There's no mention of "max_term_size" in
https://doc.dovecot.org/2.4.1/installation/upgrade/2.3-to-2.4.html
as a change.
flatcurve was added in 2.4. See https://doc.dovecot.org/2.4.1/core/plugins/fts_flatcurve.html#dovecot-flatcu... ("Added: 2.4.0").
(Flatcurve existed as an unaffiliated external 2.3 plugin, but it wasn't part of Dovecot core. Thus, there is no change for purposes of Dovecot CE changelog.)
