- Need to check
if r.configReloader != nil { - Also, shouldn't it run in the background? Since the
adminservice may have to call this on many runtimes at a time, and since the runtime already is capable of pulling config in the background, it'd be nice for it to just be a quick op

- It will be nice to capture the error and forward it to admin. The status of the reloads can be checked in river jobs history as well. It can also reload if required.
Since the config reloads now happen async in admin service so it should be fine to introduce some latency.
But happy to make this change if you think otherwise.
