Function deleteDir [src]
Returns error.DirNotEmpty if the directory is not empty.
To delete a directory recursively, see deleteTree.
On Windows, sub_path should be encoded as WTF-8.
On WASI, sub_path should be encoded as valid UTF-8.
On other platforms, sub_path is an opaque sequence of bytes with no particular encoding.
Asserts that the path parameter has no null bytes.
