Description

### Feature Request

## Problem / Opportunity

Patrons may create a Series which later on they may want to erase due to different reasons (Mistake, similar exists, etc) so this feature proposes adding this button similar to the one existing on the editing page of books. This feature will be accessible only to SuperLibrarians

Numerous of Series already exists that were created as "Tests" that can only be eliminated through access to the DB, which not every user has.

A cleaner DB of the series, freeing space and less work on maintainers on cleaning since superlibrarians will have power on this

## Proposal

Same logic that was implemented on the editing page of books will be added to the Series editing page to maintain a uniform logic between sections

Reference on how the current state of the button is on the editing page of Books
