Description
Dear pfsense-developers,
i like your work to keep everything updated.
But would it be possible to classify if an update requires a reboot?
2.3.0_1 did not require a reboot (just a packet change)
2.3.1_1 does require one. (as the base package is changed)
Using HA this is usually no big deal, but on a standalone system
you may have unwanted downtime.

Upgrades that do not need a reboot are extremely rare, and the release announcement/upgrade notes will state whether or not it's required in that case.
