Description

What is the feature you'd like to have?
A way in the Types pane to remove a type library.

Is your feature request related to a problem?
If I made a mistake and picked the wrong type library using "Add Type Library..." it is now permanently in the list of type libraries attached to the database.

Are any alternative solutions acceptable?
API would be ok, but I don't see any binaryview methods like remove_type_library, only add.

Research direction

Start by tracing the existing “Add Type Library...” action in the Types pane and the API that stores attached libraries. Done means a user can remove an attached type library, either through the pane or a documented API such as the requested removal method.
