Describe your use case and the problem you are facing

A website under my purview had hundreds of thousands of spam comments. It would be nice to be able to remove them in one fell swoop without having to resort to database queries (truncate wp_comments; truncate wp_commentmeta;).

Describe the solution you'd like

I'd like to add a flag to the wp comment delete subcommand:

wp comment delete --all

This may have a confirmation prompt along the lines of "Are you sure you want to delete XXXXX comments? (Y/n)" There might also be a "--yes" option for non-interactive use:

wp comment delete --all --yes

The addition of the "--all" flag would mirror similar-ish flags for the wp plugin delete --all and wp theme delete --all commands.

I'm aware that the wp site empty command also removes all comments, but this is a little bit different.

I'd be happy to take a stab at adding this modification, if approved.
