function Uninstall-CDirectory

    .SYNOPSIS
    Removes a directory, if it exists.
 
    .DESCRIPTION
    The `Uninstall-CDirectory` function removes a directory. If the directory doesn't exist, it does nothing. If the directory has any files or sub-directories, you will be prompted to confirm the deletion of the directory and all its contents. To avoid the prompt, use the `-Recurse` switch.
 
    `Uninstall-CDirectory` was added in Carbon 2.1.0.
 
    .EXAMPLE
    Uninstall-CDirectory -Path 'C:\Projects\Carbon'
 
    Demonstrates how to remove/delete a directory. In this case, the directory `C:\Projects\Carbon` will be deleted, if it exists.
 
    .EXAMPLE
    Uninstall-CDirectory -Path 'C:\Projects\Carbon' -Recurse
 
    Demonstrates how to remove/delete a directory that has items in it. In this case, the directory `C:\Projects\Carbon` *and all of its files and sub-directories* will be deleted, if the directory exists.
