Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
It's possible for users to get into a state where they have non-unixfs files in MFS, which will result in errors like Error: unrecognized node type in cache node.
When non-unixfs files are in MFS, removal of those files will fail in webui without error.
They also fail to be removed in the command line unless rm --force is used.
Describe the solution you'd like
When a user attempts to remove a file, we should provide an option to "force" remove the file.
Describe alternatives you've considered
We may also want to enable a fallback prompt to "force" remove files when a user attempts to remove a file and it fails.
Additional context
We should also prevent users from adding/importing non-unixfs files via the webui (I believe I added the files that got me into this state via the webui)
