// Asking the panel to restart this instance.
//
// A container cannot replace its own image from the inside, so "update" is really
// "ask whoever owns the container to recreate it" — Yggdrasil pulls `:latest` on
// the way, which is what makes a restart an update at all.
//
// The alternative was a second browser tab: read the version here, go to the
// panel, find the server, press Restart. This removes the tab, not the panel's
// authority — the panel still does the work and still records who asked.
//
// Administrators only, and sessions only. A leaked API token that could restart
// the server is a denial of service in one request, and the whole point of the
// session rule elsewhere in this file is that a stolen token must not be able to
// do things only a person at a keyboard should.
