Wikis: Rename "Delete" to "Archive", don't restrict to Maintainers

Release notes

Problem to solve

We use "Delete" in the button and modal for deleting wiki pages:

But this is a bit misleading, since the page is still available in the repository history.

We had the same issue with Design Management, and ended up renaming the action to "Archive": !38446 (merged)

In addition, "Delete" is only available to Maintainers in the web UI, but Developers can still delete pages via Git.

Intended users

User experience goal

  • Different features should use consistent terminology.
  • Different access methods should use the same permission levels.

Proposal

  • Rename "Delete" to "Archive".
  • Relax the permissions to allow Developers to delete/archive pages through the web UI as well.
