Appends a tombstone version, so the item leaves every list, search result, coverage figure and trace view on this branch while its versions and audit trail remain. Only a DRAFT that was never released may be deleted: a released item is retired through its obsolete transition, and a revision draft over a release is withdrawn through abandon-revision. The optional reason is carried onto the tombstone’s change record.
