function Remove-PanObject {
<#
.SYNOPSIS
Remove (delete) object(s)
.DESCRIPTION
Remove (delete) object(s)
.NOTES
Remove-PanObject provides feature coverage for many object types. It should NOT be called by its name. It is intended to be called by its aliases.
Find aliases: Get-Alias | Where-Object { $_.ResolvedCommandName -eq 'Remove-PanObject' }

Two modes: -InputObject mode and -Device mode.
.INPUTS
PanDevice[]
   You can pipe a PanDevice to this cmdlet
PanAddress[]
   You can pipe a PanAddress to this cmdlet
PanService[]
   You can pipe a PanService to this cmdlet
PanAddressGroup[]
   You can pipe a PanAddressGroup to this cmdlet
PanServiceGroup[]
   You can pipe a PanServiceGroup to this cmdlet
.OUTPUTS
PanAddress
PanService
PanAddressGroup
PanServiceGroup
.EXAMPLE
$D = Get-PanDevice "fw.lab.local"
Remove-PanAddress -Device $D -Location "vsys1" -Name "MyHostA"
.EXAMPLE
Get-PanDevice "fw.lab.local" | Remove-PanAddress -Location "vsys1" -Name "MyHostA"
.EXAMPLE
Get-PanDevice "fw.lab.local" | Get-PanAddress | Where-Object {$_.Value -match "^10\.16\."} | Remove-PanAddress
.EXAMPLE
Get-PanDevice "fw.lab.local" | Get-PanAddress | Where-Object {"test" -in $_.Tag} | Remove-PanAddress
