Deletes all versions of a bot, including the Draft
version. To delete a specific version, use the
DeleteBotVersion operation.
When you delete a bot, all of the resources contained in the bot are also deleted. Deleting a bot removes all locales, intents, slot, and slot types defined for the bot.
If a bot has an alias, the DeleteBot operation returns
a ResourceInUseException exception. If you want to delete
the bot and the alias, set the skipResourceInUseCheck
parameter to true.
