Description

Today a user of pulp would have to manually request all tasks using a filter and then manually trigger a delete for each one. It would be much simpler if we could simply call an API and trigger a task that would bulk delete all tasks matching some set of critera such as:

created before some date with states cancelled, completed, skipped

I think somehow using a list query to delete those (such as being able to pass the href /pulp/api/v3/tasks?state__in=completed,skipped) would be pretty slick.

for high volume installations with many tasks desiring to issue periodic cleanup routines, having a mechanism for bulk deletion will be ideal. Issuing thousands or millions of single delete API calls during a cleanup limits the ability to scale.
