+Deletes the object from the database. The object is still perfectly
+usable, but C<-E<gt>in_storage()> will now return 0 and the object must
+reinserted using C<-E<gt>insert()> before C<-E(<gt>update()> can be used
+on it. If you delete an object in a class with a C<has_many>
+relationship, all the related objects will be deleted as well. To turn
+this behavior off, pass C<cascade_delete => 0> in the C<$attr>
+hashref. Any database-level cascade or restrict will take precedence
+over a DBIx-Class-based cascading delete. See also L<DBIx::Class::ResultSet/delete>.
