Description of the issue:
I’ve noticed that if I simply reboot my Ubuntu desktop maybe due to a new kernel being installed and I do not shutdown my Brave browser, upon reboot no Brave browser would be restarted. When I restart it manually it will ask to restore the session. I thought applications can hook onto when they are being politely asked to shutdown or when an OS restart is requested and save state such that restarting the application after the reboot would restore the session. Why doesn’t Brave do this?
Steps to Reproduce (add as many as necessary): 1. 2. 3.
Start Brave. Maybe visit a few sites, have a few tabs. Then reboot the system. Upon reboot and restart of Brave you will be asked to restore the session. The session should automatically be restored.

## Description
On my KDE desktop I have already have restore last session but Brave does not restore itself automatically. I have to launch Brave manually all the time.
FYI: KDE supports 1) Restore last session, 2) Restore from last "Saved session". Testing should be done for both.
Also every time I reboot my Linux PC, I am always asked if I want to restore all previous session by Brave. I would like to see an option available, even on the popup dialog, like a check-mark saying, "Don't ask again".
It's really annoying to have to click on the button each time, also the button in the dialog doesn't even have focus, so I can't just hit Enter on my keyboard to accept yes as the default option.
## Steps to Reproduce
1. Open multiple browser windows, with many tab.
2. Reboot PC
3. Open Brave
## Actual result:
A popup dialog display asking to restore last session.
## Expected result:
Option to not have to click yes all the time. I am already use restore session on my Linux KDE, Brave should respect this and not bother me.
## Reproduces how often:
All the time.
