Description
To let users explicitly delete their stored Sync data once CWTS changes no longer delete it, Mozilla Accounts needs a way to request deletion.
Provide an authenticated API endpoint or equivalent mechanism that Accounts can use to delete all Sync data for a specified user ID. Return enough information for Accounts to report success or failure accurately.

Research direction
Start by reviewing the existing authenticated Sync API endpoints and current data-deletion behavior in syncstorage-rs. Define how Mozilla Accounts will request deletion for a specified user ID and how success or failure will be reported; done means the request is authenticated, all Sync data is deleted, and the response is unambiguous.
