NuGet locals command should allow deleting specific packages from NuGet global packages folder

[SupporterMan]

Details about Problem

I have a nuget package that want to remove it from my project and I also want to clear its local global cache from userprofile.nuget\package. According to the manage package document, I only could use "nuget locals global-packages -clear" command to clear all global caches, not a specific one. Otherwise, I need to navigate to the .nuget\packages path in file folder and delete it manually.

NuGet product used: NuGet.exe
NuGet version (4.1.0)

This issue should cover the VS side of things as well. #8204

cc @emgarten The following seem like repeated asks:

• nuget locals global-packages -clear -packages {list of packages}
• nuget locals global-packages -clear -project {path to project file}

In the 2nd case it clears all packages that are directly referenced in the project.

Looks very useful. It would also be nice to prune everything not in a solution, or older than a certain time.

This win my vote. It should be very useful to remove older packages than just clear all of global cache.

@SupporterMan @neolib Thanks for reporting this request. We will consider this request, when possible.

Could really do with
nuget locals http-cache -clear -packages {list of packages}
myself.
And/or the package to automatically be cleared from the http-cache when it is pushed.
