Auto Delete S3 buckets when environment is removed

See original GitHub issue

Originally created by @daghanacay in the docs project as https://github.com/aws-amplify/docs/issues/1209

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. When we delete an environment it does not delete the s3 buckets corresponding to that environment

Describe the solution you’d like when I execute

amplify env remove [envname]

Describe alternatives you’ve considered manual deletion of S3 buckets

Additional context When the team members grow work-flow defined here https://aws-amplify.github.io/docs/cli-toolchain/quickstart?sdk=js#concepts-1 becomes intractable and leaves a lot of orphan S3 buckets.

why was it closed?

I can confirm that all the buckets except for the hosting bucket is deleted. Can you also delete the hosting bucket? is there a reason why you leave it?
