Do we want to actually give the option to extend the session asynchronously? It would be more user-friendly.

I'm happy to, but I might need a bit more guidance on how to do that.
Just exploring options now, I added a button to refresh the page, but what would be the best way to refresh the session without refreshing the entire page and potentially losing any unsvaed changes?
So far I just added this to the phtml:
<button onclick="window.location.reload();">Refresh Page</button>

The trouble with just reloading the page is that the user is likely to lose whatever changes they've got. We should be able to execute an AJAX request that can renew their session, but remain on the page they're currently on.
Obviously, we'd require testing to make sure that whatever page they're editing remains saveable (no form key issues, etc.)

Request in #14 , this feature provides an admin UI modal that warns the admin user if they're within one minute of their session expiring.
I've taken a simple approach in the phtml file, but open to suggestions for improvement.
