Description

### Problem

Quality of life improvement: to be able to restart and install updates from the system settings menu where you can check for and install updates already.

Added bonus: from other desktop environments, there is no way to trigger system updates to happen on restart without logging out and rebooting from the login screen. Please see here for discussion:

### Proposal

Add a button to the system settings menu to restart and install updates when contextually appropriate. Thank you!
