Delete all objects on a partition. Because this is a destructive command, the user is prompted to proceed/quit before the erasure occurs.
For password-authenticated HSMs, if the password isn't entered on the command line, the user will be prompted for it interactively. User input will be echoed as asterisks.
For PED-authenticated HSMs, PED action is required, and the Partition Owner PED Key (black) is requested. Any password provided at the command line is ignored. However, if a PED PIN was specified when the HSM partition was created, that PED PIN must be entered at the PED keypad.
