[Feature Request] Add /reload command to restart Claude Code while preserving session state

Bug Description
I would like a /reload command that basically just exits claude code and immediately resumes the last session to be able to update claude code. I have a lot of long-running claude code sessions and when there are updates its annoying to have to exit and resume them all to get nice new stuff
