> When the last backup is deleted using the {{-fd}} (force delete) option, there are no remaining backups to recover from. In this state:
>  * Continuous backup metadata in the system table becomes obsolete.
>  * WAL files under the backup WAL directory are no longer needed.
>  * The replication peer used for continuous WAL tracking serves no purpose.
> Since the entire backup chain is gone, we can safely clean up all related metadata and WAL artifacts to free up storage and avoid stale state in the system.
