Why farmbot_remove_point_group needs a policy

This tool permanently deletes data without the ability to undo the operation. While the underlying points remain, the point group configuration—which organizes and defines how those points are used together in FarmBot operations—is irreversibly removed. This fits the Destructive category as it involves deletion that cannot be reversed.
