- Handles auto-extensions key check and install of extend license key
with new OS Updates Expiration date
Related to https://github.com/unraid/webgui/pull/2071 but not 100%
dependent on them.
@elibosley, do we want to use the `force` param on the `check()` method
for either of these pages?
Additionally, what do you think about any potential integration with
`UnraidCheck.php` – which is used for the UPC's "Check for Updates"
button and the user configured automatically scheduled update check?
