MyCarePlanner - Delete SDS data functionality

[mattStorer]

The VA imposes a stipulation that patients be able to request to delete, or delete themselves, any data that they may have within the SDS.

By far the best way to handle this is to use built-in HAPI-FHIR delete APIs, and it is suggested to add a mechanism in the MyCarePlanner app to facilitate the user performing this action.

How, specifically, that should be accomplished is TBD. However, we should dig into what such a call would look like and see about implementing something along those lines.

See:

• http://hl7.org/fhir/R4/http.html#delete
• https://hapifhir.io/hapi-fhir/docs/server_jpa/configuration.html#cascading-deletes
• https://hapifhir.io/hapi-fhir/docs/server_jpa/configuration.html#controlling-delete-with-expunge-size
• https://smilecdr.com/docs/fhir_repository/deleting_data.html (this one relates to Smile CDR, which I believe is related / integrated with HAPI FHIR but I can't say for sure)

That's probably enough to go on for now.

I do see in the SDS application.yaml that there are commented out references to delete_expunge_enabled so I think perhaps if we set that to true, that the SDS ought to be able to handle expunge requests.

all needs to be tested of course, but this would definitely be the best way to go about handling this VA requirement
