[pve-devel] [PATCH docs] qm/pct: Add explanation for --purge

["Dominic Jäger" <d.jaeger@proxmox.com>]

This was apparently not clear enough.
For example, see #3184.

A bit long, but I think this is a better place for additional
information about ACL and firewall than the GUI tooltip or the
API parameter description.
