A professional tag remover WordPress plugin for Woo

What It Do Nephew

I got a little overzealous with a clients tags and ended up with about 16k unique tags for only 3500 products. The wp_termmeta file was humongous. Bad move Foxco. So I wanted to delete all of these tags and went to phpMyAdmin but then I thought this might be an issue others have experienced and why not create a simple plugin for it. So here's the plugin:
