az monitor log-analytics workspace delete force does not work

Describe the bug

When an Azure LogAnalytics workspace is deleted, it gets soft-deleted by default, enabling us to restore it. However, we may want to to a hard delete, which is supported by REST API.

The --force flag should do that, but as you can see running the following commands, the workspace is soft-deleted.

Command Name az monitor log-analytics workspace delete

@aarroyoc , thanks for reporting. This is a known issue that was already fixed, and should be available in all regions by tomorrow. All deleted workspaces are kept in the backend for 14 days until the data is purged. The difference between force and soft deletes is that for force we release the workspace name where in soft we keep it for you, since names are globally unique. The bug was that we displayed force delete workspaces in the list instead of hiding them.

It seems to be working right now. Thanks!
