Implementation of #298: borgmatic delete and rdelete actions. Like with other actions (list/rlist, info/rinfo), if you to run the archive-oriented action (delete) without an archive (or related flags), borgmatic will transparently pass through to the repository-oriented action (rdelete).

Unlike other borgmatic actions, delete does not look at the match_archives/archive_name_format configuration options when determining which archives to use. That's because I figured it would be better to require the user to be explicit about which archives to delete rather than assuming.

Still to-do:

automated tests
dry run support
manual testing with Borg 1
manual testing with Borg 2
double check that the use cases in #298 are satisfied
~~documentation other than command-line help?~~

Implementation of #298: borgmatic `delete` and `rdelete` actions. Like with other actions (`list`/`rlist`, `info`/`rinfo`), if you to run the archive-oriented action (`delete`) without an archive (or related flags), borgmatic will transparently pass through to the repository-oriented action (`rdelete`). Unlike other borgmatic actions, `delete` does *not* look at the `match_archives`/`archive_name_format` configuration options when determining which archives to use. That's because I figured it would be better to require the user to be explicit about which archives to delete rather than assuming. Still to-do: * [x] automated tests * [x] dry run support * [x] manual testing with Borg 1 * [x] manual testing with Borg 2 * [x] double check that the use cases in #298 are satisfied * [x] ~~documentation other than command-line help?~~
