Add multiple delete to taxonomy terms page [#305574]

This is similar to http://drupal.org/node/186571 (improve UI to delete multiple path aliases at once)

When working with large vocabularies, having checkboxes and a "Delete selected" button is an invaluable time saver. Since 4.7, we've been doing this with the Taxonomy Batch Operations module, but the multiple deletion functionality really seems like it ought to live in core. Having to click 'edit' (wait) -> 'delete' (wait) -> 'confirm delete' (wait) -> repeat for each term when trying to manage long lists is a major nightmare and timesink.

I've been having similar problems with a recent site.

As a solution I used to sort the stuff I wanted to delete in a tree and delete the root, but that's a workaround and what this thing needs is a solution.

Note: I use taxonomy terms mainly to sort content with taxonomy_menu, as such some sites can easy get 100+ terms
