I'd not put this in the commit message, because it is nothing notable.
It's the same for all API calls. And also not recommended for non-test
environments with the "--insecure". You could still put it below the
"---" of course.

Are these imports still used or are they left-over from a previous version?

I'd not rename it, because the default is "--delete 0".

Style nit:
Usually multi-line strings are wrapped with the dot and space in front
of subsequent lines in our code base. I know I deviated from that a few
times in the past until I wrote a section about it to remember :P
https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Perl_Style_Guide#Wrapping_Strings

Nit: the last line should be added by the patch adding support for backups

Style nit: parentheses with post-if

This check should not be in the else branch but unconditional

Don't we need to also check the source storage?
What about activating the source volume?

See my comment for patch 7/7

That function doesn't have two arguments.

I'd align the behavior with what the DELETE endpoint does, i.e. turn the
implementation of the worker sub there into a helper and call that here
and there.

archive_remove() was introduced as a helper for pruning on directories
and is not generally correct for other storages or content types.
