Add ability to charmcraft close not supported base.

What needs to get done

Hi,

At the moment users can close [track/]risk[/branch] only.

However one channel/track usually has several bases, some might be deprecated or just garbage.
It is a feature request to close the specific base only.

Example, see the charm https://charmhub.io/data-platform-libs :

> charmcraft status data-platform-libs

The base 20.04 is not updated for many years and was the earlier experiments, garbage at the moment.
We should like to hide/remove/close it to avoid users confusing.
Unfortunately, it is not currently possible, we can close the whole track/risk[/branch] only.

Q2: BTW, can I close the whole track latest and then push base 22.04 only (to reopen latest).
Will 20.04 re-appear in this case?

Tnx!

Why it needs to get done

See the example above: to clean early experimental bases in the actively supported track.

For question 1, I've made a store request that would be dependent on this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/snapstore-server/+bug/2088469

For #2, I don't know, but I'll ask someone on the store team to weigh in here.

To answer #2 - 20.04 shouldn't re-appear in that case. After closing only the newly released revisions should be present.

re #2 - confirmed. After the close/re-release the 20.04 has gone:

Thank you!
