1927925 - Allow the last profile to be deleted via SelectableProfileService

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Toolkit :: Startup and Profile System, enhancement, P2)

Description

[Jared Hirsch [:jhirsch] (he/him) (Needinfo please)]

Following on the 10/30 discussion, we want to delete the last profile by creating a new profile in the group, scheduling deletion of the current profile, then restarting into the new profile, so that users continue to have the profiles feature available but it is clear to them that the data from that last profile has been removed
