Velero: Clarify implications of removing restore object
Describe the problem/challenge you have
If you restore a lot of backups, sometimes you want to clean up restore objects. However, currently the documentation does not say what happens when you remove restore object. Having that clarified would be great.
Describe the solution you'd like
The clear documentation of what restore object represents and what happens when user removes it would be great.

A restore object represents a restore operation. Deleting it via velero restore delete will delete the custom resource representing it, along with its individual log & results files, but will not delete any objects that were created by it from your cluster.
Deleting it via kubectl -n velero delete restore will delete the custom resource representing the restore, but will not delete log/results files from object storage, or any objects that were created by the restore in your cluster.
