Bug Description

The nova-manage cell_v2 delete_cell --force option currently only removes the host_mappings of empty hosts before deleting the cell. This has to be extended to deleting the nova.compute_nodes record and nova_api.resource_providers along with the host_mappings for those hosts which have no living instances.

The nova-manage cell_v2 delete_host needs to have a new option --force by which when a host is deleted forcefully, if it has no living instances then again its nova.compute_node record and nova_api.resource_provider along with its host_mapping should be removed.

This is arguably a duplicate of bug 1756179 which is already resolved now - DELETE /os-services/{id} will now delete resource provider and host mapping for a compute service record when deleting the service via the REST API.

Since implementing this on delete_host command would make this a copy of nova service-list, we now focus only on delete_cell; tbh I am not sure what's the goal of having delete_host.. maybe to just delete the host_mapping and re-create the host mapping in the same cell? -> wondering what's the use case for that.
