add permanent purge functionality for wagons and routes

- Implemented a  method in  to permanently delete wagons without history.
- Added corresponding permissions for hard delete actions in .
- Updated the UI components to include purge actions, ensuring they are only available to users with the appropriate permissions.
- Created modals for confirming permanent deletions in  and .
- Enhanced API services to handle purge requests for locomotives, wagons, and routes.
- Added tests for the purge functionality in both  and  services to ensure proper behavior and error handling.
