Description
Is it possible to add "reset deltas" (https://docs.syncthing.net/users/syncthing.html#cmdoption-reset-deltas) to the app somehow?
Reset deltas is a useful feature for troubleshooting various scenarios with syncing devices properly, it would be handy to have this implemented in this app in some way so that going to the command line isn't necessary. Perhaps a button in Preferences, so it's somewhat hidden?

Research direction
The issue requests exposing Syncthing’s reset-deltas command in the macOS app, possibly through a hidden Preferences button. Start by determining the app’s existing command and Preferences entry points; done means users can invoke reset deltas without using the command line.
