New daily insight that checks if a reboot is required. For example when a new kernel is automatically installed if it's a security update. This is really useful to receive a notification when this happens:

> Running kernel version:
  6.8.0-100-generic
Diagnostics:
  The currently running kernel version is not the expected kernel version 6.8.0-101-generic.

> Restarting the system to load the new kernel will not be handled automatically, so you should consider rebooting.

We've had this filter for a while which makes it easy as well, a whole insight for this is a bit excessive in my opinion. Here you can see all the ones that require a reboot: https://ploi.io/panel/servers?options=requires-reboot
