docs(developer-guide): the delete-record column is client-owned
The pre-edit hook example re-added _____DELETE__THIS__RECORD_____="No" when it re-read the table, mirroring the data step getdata.sas used to run. That column is created by the editor itself (it is the Delete? column) and is never part of the dataset, so the example no longer adds it - and a response that carries the name is refused by the editor, which the "What the hook does" bullet now states. Also notes the reserved name on the MPE_TABLES page, and says in the user guide that the Delete? column is created by Data Controller rather than being part of the table.

!!! note
|

`_____DELETE__THIS__RECORD_____` is a reserved name. The editor creates that column itself - it is the **Delete?** column - and never reads it from the table, so a target table must not contain a column of that name. The editor refuses to open a table that does, rather than let the two collide.
