Tailscale - Offer ability to enable/access Web UI

[0xBA5E64]

Tailscale offers a Web Interface to monitor and configure certain options. Similar to enabling Tailscale to act as an Exit Node, it'd be nice to have the option to configure this web-ui to be accessible via TrueNAS apps, much like many other applications already do.

Do you use tailscale without host networking?
In that case, yea we can take a look exposing settings for the web-ui.
But if you run in host network, you should already have access to it, according to docs it runs by default already.

The web-interface is only accessible through 100.100.100.100 from the host-system itself by default, but needs to be enabled using tailscale set --webclient to be made accessible over port 5252 openly

Looks like it doesn't work correctly,

According to docs, I should be able to pass --webclient in TS_EXTRA_ARGS

But I'm seeing this

tailscale-1  | boot: 2024/10/31 19:56:11 Running 'tailscale up'
tailscale-1  | flag provided but not defined: -webclient

Maybe we should wait for this
