[Feature request] Clearly point to the newer HWE kernels in the update manager #64

Description

@tuxfanmatze
  • Mint has a wonderful kernel management in the update management -> View -> Kernel, including the waiting queue (de)-installation. But Mint users don't notice when the newer HWE kernels (coming from Ubuntu) appear there well before the official Mint Edge release, meanwhile kernel 5.19 and 6.2.
  • This should be pointed out in the welcome dialog, as this would allow Mint to be used on more current hardware and would significantly increase the distribution of Mint.
  • I have kernel 5.19 and then 6.2 running fine on a Core i5-6300U and Core i3-4170 with integrated graphics card.
