minetestserver restart with builtin command

[siliconsniffer]

Problem

When changing the config or adding mods to the world, one currently has to shutdown the server and then restart it which takes a bit.

(Though for the config there seems to be a mod and @jordan4ibanez is working on a GUI for minetestsever)

Solutions

A builtin restart command similar to shutdown would be nice.

Alternatives

It could also become a flag of shutdown.

Additional context

great idea! i always wondered why that command wasnt there.........................

It would be even nicer if the /restart command also had an option to only restart once the server is empty. Similar to this. (On that server docker currently handles restarting / keeping alive)

Yeah, that's a great idea! One flag to force a restart and one to wait until everyone is disconnected. I think it would make sense for players to always have the option to reconnect - not like the shutdown command where you would have to specify this.
