I've had those options on multiple OnePlus phones, but they were not present on multiple Pixels. Since Pixels are usually sold as "AOSP experience with Google flavor" are lacking this feature - I am not sure if that is that feature comes from AOSP or is only present on OnePlus phones.

I've generally found them on most Android phones, but they're all over the place in the settings. On my current phone they're not in permissions, or connections, or internet setup, or security, but they're in the app details screen.

I've also seen the toggles placed in the data usage graph, the other, older data usage graph you can sometimes find via a workaround, and in a separate app that pretends to be one of those system storage optimizers.

I'm sure Android supports it at the system level but how you get to those settings is anyone's guess, really.
