#3317: t.remove -rf does not unregister removed maps from temporal database

------------------------+-------------------------
I used {{{t.remove -rf inputs=bla1,bla2,bla3}}} to remove all strds and
corresponding maps from a certain mapset I use for testing. However, I
found that even though maps and strds were indeed removed (i.e.: they no
longer appeared after {{{t.list type=strds}}} or {{{g.list
type=raster}}}), maps were not unregistered from the temporal database. I
only discovered this when I used {{{t.list type=raster}}}. I had to remove
those maps (i.e.: the corresponding entries for those maps in the temporal
database) with G7:t.unregister.
I understand that maps are not unregistered from the temporal database
when one only removes the strds, but if one removes both strds and maps
(by means of -rf flags), wouldn't it be better to also unregister those
maps from the temporal database by default? It seems confusing to also
have to run t.unregister after having removed strds and maps.
