DELETE/api/v1/projects/{id}

Delete a project and all of its data

Permanently deletes the project. Destructive: many tables reference `projects.id` with ON DELETE CASCADE (traces, gateway logs, eval runs, security scans, datasets, prompts, and others), so the project history is removed with it; tables that reference it with ON DELETE SET NULL keep their rows and simply lose the association. Requires the OWNER role of the project's org (an admin gets 403) plus `projects:delete`, and is written to the audit log. Answers 404 NOT_FOUND when the project is already gone and 403 DELETE_FORBIDDEN when the row was readable but the delete removed no rows, so a phantom success is never reported. Returns `{id, name, slug, deleted:true, deleted_at}` with `Cache-Control: no-store`. 10 req/min.
