/**
 * Fired when the plugin is uninstalled.
 *
 * Cleanup policy:
 *
 * - Credentials (the Google Indexing service account — a plaintext private
 *   key — and the IndexNow API key) are ALWAYS deleted. They must never be
 *   left behind in wp_options by a plugin that is no longer installed.
 * - Everything else (custom tables, options, transients, per-post SEO meta,
 *   log files) is only removed when the site owner opted in via the
 *   "Delete all plugin data when the plugin is uninstalled" toggle in
 *   Advanced Settings. The default is OFF, per WordPress uninstall guidelines.
 *
 * The opt-in option is read BEFORE any options are deleted, because the
 * option itself is plugin data.
 *
 * For multisite, the cleanup runs once per site when the plugin is
 * network-activated and removed.
