Soft deletes a library component by setting the deletedAt timestamp. The component is marked as deleted but not permanently removed from the database. Automatically cleans up invalid condition targets and updates timeframes.

**What are Library Components?**
Library components are workspace-wide reusable templates (projectId is null). They serve as blueprints that can be imported into projects. Only library components (projectId is null) can be deleted through this endpoint.
