Currently the way to delete a "directory" through the ObjectStore interface is to call
list
with the directory path as prefix and then pipe that todelete_stream
.This is the correct way to do this for object storage since "directories" don't really exist and the path is just a prefix to individual objects.
But for actual filesystems directories are actual inodes themselves in the filesystem which should be cleaned up. This flag enables the automatic cleanup of empty directories when deleting files.
