That just means all the supported buttons are already present. If you remove
one, it'll show up as available.

I'm not sure where that layout comes from, I thought it was from Oxygen/Ozone,
but that actually defaults to having the close button on the extreme right
after the 2 spacers. Maybe an old version of Oxygen? Or maybe it's just what
the default is the first time you enable customized positions.

The '+' stands for "On all desktops". '?' is Help, '_' is minimize, the square
is maximize.

The 'H's are spacers (separators). Oxygen uses those spacers to look "cool",
in most other window decorations they're just annoying, so just remove them.

Right, those 2 'H's are spacers so they produce that wide blank space.
