This patch is just a little cleanup, it replaces the body_flag field of

intent of the field (check that state == TABLE_STATE_HEADERS conveys
more what we want to do than checking for !body_flag).

Yay for avoiding the boolean trap.

Nit: This one stood out, as none of the other places fully qualify
the enum.

You could also consider moving the enum to within
the table class, and/and use "enum class" to shorten the
names, if you want to scope it.

TIL about "enum class".

In patch "Class-ify ui_out_table", I move it to the ui_out_table class. If that's ok with you, I'll look into making use of enum class in that patch. I'll remove the "ui_out_table_state::" in this instance for consistency.
