feat(db): add partial split package option to db remove

By default passing a pkgbase removes all split packages, debug packages
as well as entries from the state repo for all existing architectures.

When using the `--partial` option it may most likely lead to undesired
effects by leaving debug packages behind as well as dangling entries in
the state repository. However, for specific use cases its required to
get rid of old split package parts.

Fixes #218

 		OPTIONS
-		    -a, --arch    Override the architecture (disables auto-detection)
+		    -a, --arch    Remove only one specific architecture (disables auto-detection)
+		    --partial     Remove only partial pkgnames from a split package. This leaves
