ARM debug deployment clean up script

This script will iterate though all ARM deployments and will clean up those deployments where debugSetting is enabled. It will scan deployments at following scopes:

• Management groups
• Subscriptions
• Resource groups

Note: The user running the script must have permission to delete deployments at each scope. If the user does not have permission to read deployments none will be returned or deleted.
