Deletes an existing Database Group

Examples

DEL GROUP TAT;

Notes

Soft-deletes an existing Database Group: DEL GROUP <id> (docs/CONNECTION_MODEL.md ยง4).

id is mandatory and must exist, active, in the CDF's INSTANCE table - already inactive is reported with a distinct message, unknown with the generic one. Asks for a [y/n] confirmation before proceeding; only y/yes deletes, anything else aborts.

This is a <em>soft</em> delete: the group is marked inactive, not removed - DatabaseDefinitionsVault#softDeleteGroup refuses if any connection, active or inactive, still references it. Reactivate it with EDIT GROUP (toggle Active back on).
