keyKeyContextKey context for the operation. A bare 32-byte index key (the index_key) implicitly converts to a KeyContext. For an RBAC user, pass cyborg::KeyContext{user_kek, user_id} (write permission required).

index->Delete({"item_1", "item_2"}, index_key);
index_key is the 32-byte std::array<uint8_t, 32> index KEK and converts implicitly to a KeyContext.
