What Purge does

description: Wipe Anchored memory (default soft-delete; pass --hard for full DB reset with backup) argument-hint: [--hard]

The user wants to purge Anchored memory. Arguments: $ARGUMENTS

This is destructive. Before running anything:

Confirm the user really wants to do this. Ask once, plainly.
If $ARGUMENTS contains --hard, warn them this drops the full DB (a .bak is made automatically). Otherwise it soft-deletes everything (recoverable for 30 days via anchored dream).
