Feature #14254

Add option "Reboot with Filesystem Check" to the Diagnostics > Reboot page for Netgate 3100

Description
I'd simply like to request that the "Reboot with Filesystem Check" option (mentioned in the documentation on the "Troubleshooting Disk and Filesystem Issues" page, see link below) be added to the Diagnostics > Reboot page for the Netgate 3100.
I just tested the console method of triggering an automatic Filesystem Check on the 3100 running 23.01 and it worked great so it would be nice if the GUI option was there since it sounds like the 3100 may never get ZFS support and therefore running Filesystem checks on the 3100 can be helpful if not necessary after power failures. (I don't know why but this year I've had TONS of 3100s with corrupted file systems.)
Thanks for considering it.

We cannot add this because as you noted on #14253 it cannot be cleared automatically on 3100.
We only add the option on platforms where it can be managed in a fully automated manner, or else the user could use the GUI to get the system into a state from which it cannot recover without console access.
