kdb-rm /: does not remove everything

[markus2330]

Cascading removal of keys with globbing (_) seems to fail.

Steps to Reproduce the Problem

kdb setmeta spec/tests/_/hello default world
kdb rm -r /tests

Expected Result

That afterwards all keys are removed.

Actual Result

The key is still there. Due to #2456 the output is:

kdb ls /tests
#> /tests/_/hello

But the actual key is of course spec/tests/_/hello

This may be a problem in ksCut, because kdb rm -r /tests should still include everything below spec/tests (and therefore spec/tests/_/hello), no matter if globbing is used or not.

It may also be the problem that I encountered once (and never again), where somehow a cascading key ended up in the stored dump file and I had to manually remove it.
