1. Proposed title of this feature request
   • Add "Gracefully Restart Node" action in the OpenShift Web Console
2.  What is the nature and description of the request?
   • The request is to add a new user action, "Gracefully Restart," to the menu for each node on the Compute > Nodes page. When an administrator triggers this action, the web console should automate the entire sequence required for a safe node reboot.

                     The process would be as follows:

                          The system presents a confirmation dialog to prevent accidental reboots.

                                Upon confirmation, the backend orchestrates the following steps:

                                          1. Cordon: Mark the node as unschedulable.

                                          2. Drain: Safely evict all workloads (pods), respecting disruption budgets.

                                          3. Reboot: Trigger a reboot command on the node's operating system via the appropriate infrastructure provider API (e.g., through the Machine API Operator).

                                          4. Monitor & Uncordon: Wait for the node to come back online and report a Ready status, then automatically make it schedulable again.

      3. Why does the customer need this? (List the business requirements here)
