#679: Add support for deleting vector elements
----------------------+------------------------

 Priority:  Normal    |  Milestone:  Bro2.0
Component:  Bro       |    Version:  git/master
 Keywords:            |
----------------------+------------------------
 The following code should work but doesn't:
 {{{
 global v: vector of string;

 bro_init()
     {
     v[3] = "foo";
     delete v[3];
     }
 }}}

 It gives the following error message:
 {{{
 error in ./vector.bro, line 6: illegal delete statement (delete v[3])
 }}}

 Sets and tables support the `delete` operation, and an intuitive
 brogrammer expects the same thing to work with vectors as well.
