New flags in a `podman update` can change the configuration of HealthCheck when the container is started, without having to restart or recreate the container.
This can help determine why a given container suddenly started failing HealthCheck without interfering with the services it provides. For example, reconfigure HealthCheck to keep logs longer than the usual last X results, store logs to other destinations, etc.

In each options/foo.md, keep a list of where the option is used.
This will be valuable to anyone making future edits, and to
those reviewing those edits.
This may be a controversial commit, because those crossref lists
are autogenerated as a side effect of the script that reads them.
It definitely violates POLA. And one day, some kind person will
reconcile (e.g.) --label, using it in more man pages, and maybe
forget to git-commit the rewritten file, and CI will fail.
I think this is a tough tradeoff, but worth doing. Without this,
it's much too easy for someone to change an option file in a way
that renders it inapplicable/misleading for some podman commands.

For systems that have extreme robustness requirements (edge devices,
particularly those in difficult to access environments), it is important
that applications continue running in all circumstances. When the
application fails, Podman must restart it automatically to provide this
robustness. Otherwise, these devices may require customer IT to
physically gain access to restart, which can be prohibitively difficult.
Add a new `--on-failure` flag that supports four actions:
- **none**: Take no action.
- **kill**: Kill the container.
- **restart**: Restart the container. Do not combine the `restart`
action with the `--restart` flag. When running inside of
a systemd unit, consider using the `kill` or `stop`
action instead to make use of systemd's restart policy.
- **stop**: Stop the container.
To remain backwards compatible, **none** is the default action.
