Deletion of code lists in the content library

[TomasEng]

It should be possible to delete unused code lists from the content library.

Acceptance criteria

• It is possible to delete an unused code list from the content library
• It is not possible to delete a code list that is in use
• The content library provides information telling the user that certain code lists cannot be deleted because they are in use

Out of scope

• Handling deletion of code lists in use (deleting the components that use the code list etc.)

Decision points

We need to decide how to communicate to the user that a code list cannot be deleted because it is in use. Options to consider:

• Display an alert when the user attempts to delete a code list in use
• Add some visual details making it clear that the code list is in use (e.g. list the components that refer to it) and disable the delete button

Dependencies

We have agreed to go for the first point: Display an alert when the user attempts to delete a code list in use

As a part of this issue we also need to implement support for checking where (in ComponentID or LayoutName or both?) the code list is used in the layouts.
