Why gdrive_clear_values needs a policy

Clearing all values from a cell range is a destructive operation — it irreversibly removes data from the specified cells. While the spreadsheet structure remains, the data itself is wiped and cannot be recovered without a backup or version history. The phrase 'clear all values' confirms this is a bulk data removal action, not a reversible write.
