Good idea. I think it is very useful for user.

Hi folks,
Currently, when user drop table or partition, Doris will first put the data
in the trash directory, and then wait for the trash directory to be emptied.
But during operation and maintenance, I found that when I need to clean up
cluster data to release disk resources, I need the following steps:
1. Drop table or partition
2. Log in to the machine
3. Clean up the trash directory
If there are too many BE nodes in the cluster, the entire process of
releasing disk resources will be extremely slow and cumbersome.
So I propose whether it is possible to add a function for forcibly dropping
data. After this function is called, the data will be deleted directly
instead of placing the data in the trash directory.
Looking forward to your reply (*^ω^*)
