Batch delete catalog objects
Deletes a set of CatalogItems based on the provided list of target IDs and returns a set of successfully deleted IDs in the response
Deletion is a cascading event such that all children of the targeted object are also deleted. For example, deleting a CatalogItem will also delete all of its CatalogItemVariation children.
BatchDeleteCatalogObjects succeeds even if only a portion of the targeted
IDs can be deleted. The response will only include IDs that were
actually deleted.
