Description

We should add the option to delete a group. Now that we easily have "Find nearby repeaters", I'm finding I have a bunch of groups for trips I went on that I don't need anymore, and I'm sure others have had their own annoyances with old groups in the list.

Here's how it should work:

  1. Add "Delete this group" to "..." menu on the main screen
  2. Pop up a confirmation dialog:

Dialog title: Delete "group name here"? Dialog body: You can't undo this action. This will also delete all memories stored in this group. Dialog buttons: Cancel, Delete

Note that it should delete all memories in the group from the app DB. I think we already have the needed helper functions for this, since you can already manually delete every memory in a group (and then the group disappears) so we just need to automate that will a loop probably.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Implement the 'Delete this group' option in the '...' menu on the main screen. Show a confirmation dialog with title 'Delete group name?', body 'You can't undo this action...', and buttons Cancel/Delete. On Delete, call existing helper functions to delete all memories in the group from the app database, then remove the group.
