   I'm perfectly fine with doing this internal to `LocalFilesystem` to minimize 
changes but to make the argument for the new method:
   
   1. It is a useful shorthand for an operation that should be reasonably 
common even with non-filesystem implementations.
   2. It can be formulated in terms of the default implementation of existing 
methods so won't break anything 
   3. Handling it internal to `LocalFilesystem` requires doing a bunch of 
unnecessary filesystem operations (and their associated syscalls) since we have 
to try and delete the parent directory after deleting each file.
