Deletes a custom permission by id, scoped to the current Environment. System permissions (source: system) are protected and cannot be deleted. Supports optimistic concurrency via the If-Match header (409 on a version mismatch). Responds 204 No Content on success and requires the rbac.manage_roles permission.
