Represents the delete action that can be performed on
CustomTargetingKey objects. Deleting a key will not delete the
CustomTargetingValue objects associated with it. Also, if a custom
targeting key that has been deleted is recreated, any previous custom
targeting values associated with it that were not deleted will continue to
exist.
