Description
- I have searched the issues of this repo and believe that this is not a duplicate.
- I have searched the documentation and believe that my question is not covered.
Feature Request
It would be great to add a cli command like poetry self remove to uninstall poetry. This would allow to uninstall old poetry versions (Installed with old installer, not upgradeable) without the need of the get-poetry.py script.
