For the theoretical maximums one might reasonably expect to appear here in an actual game once Pathfinder 1e gets involved, I'd say to look at some of the 1E third party material.
For example:
A level 20 Incanter from Spheres of Power will have 30 magic talents (roughly equivalent to feats in mechanical complexity, or potentially moreso because many will have on/off toggles), +10 more if they spend every feat slot on Extra Magic Talent.
A level 20 vigilante using Legendary Vigilantes (not currently part of the 3PP community pack, but I've been working on it) will potentially have 40 bonus feats from class levels, as many of the vigilante talents grant 3 bonus feats at a time and many of the social talents each grant 1 bonus feat.
A level 20 vizier from Akashic Mysteries will have 11 veils, each of which of which is potentially equivalent to several feats (a base effect plus several toggle effects), and has variable effects that can regularly change every round in combat.
If you mix things the combinations rapidly explode. A vigilante with Legendary Vigilantes and Spheres of Might could have 3 feats each from 10 vigilante talents, 1 feat each from the 10 social talents, and 15 one-to-two-feat equivalent martial talents from the Shadow Warrior archetype, for a total of 60+ feat equivalents on a single-class character.
