FEATURE: Allow admins to permanently delete revisions (#19913)
# Context
This PR introduces the ability to permanently delete revisions from a post while maintaining the changes implemented by the revisions.
Additional Context: /t/90301

# Functionality
In the case a staff member wants to _remove the visual cue_ that a post has been edited eg.

while maintaining the changes made in the edits, they can enable the (hidden) site setting of `can_permanently_delete`.
When this is enabled, after _hiding_ the revisions

there will be an additional button in the history modal to <kbd>Delete revisions</kbd> on a post.

Since this action is permanent, we display a confirmation dialog prior to triggering the destroy call

Once confirmed the history modal will close and the post will `rebake` to display an _unedited_ post.

see that there is not a visual que for _revision have been made on this post_ for a post that **HAS** been edited. In addition to this, a user history log for `purge_post_revisions` will be added for each action completed.
