wer delete
Delete one or more resources and tear down any associated infrastructure. Alias: rm.

The delete command removes one or more resources. For workstations, the
resource is marked for deletion and the background worker handles the actual VM teardown
and cleanup. For other resource types, the deletion is immediate.
