Motivation / Problem
While reviewing #12541, the maximum size check and comment for pool size were not in sync which yielded a search for what is valid.
The result: with the league table pool you can add/allocate 256 elements. These will be numbered 0 to 255. 0xFF (or 255) is also used for as sentinel for an invalid league table pool id and as such should not be allowed to be allocated by the pool.
Description
Reduce the league table pool size by 1.
Limitations
Might, in theory, cause some issues with scripts that can't create 256 elements any more. However, they were not allowed to change or use the 256th element afterwards, as that would be flagged as an invalid id.
