Description

Sometimes reboots need to be forced on a node. It would be nice if there was a way to force the node to restart outside of `start-time`/`end-time`, `blocking-pod-selector`, etc

Maybe if `/var/run/reboot-required` contains the text `force`?

Research direction

Start by tracing how kured decides whether a node may reboot, including the start-time/end-time and blocking-pod-selector checks. Clarify the force signal and its precedence over those conditions, then add coverage for the forced path and verify the intended safety behavior.
