conda clean should remove the temporary local channel and packages #130

What is the idea?

Right now if you want to clear the cache of the converted packages created by running conda pypi, you have to manually remove the location, for example with rm -r /Users/dyeaw/Library/Application\ Support/conda-pypi/. I would like to be able to run conda clean and it removes the temporary channel and cached packages as well.

Why is this needed?

Users expect that conda clean --all cleans up everything. It isn't a great experience having to manually remove certain folder.

What should happen?

The most extensible way to implement this would be to first do conda/conda#14253, and then add a post-command hook to clean the conda-pypi channel directory.
