  // Methods.
 
  /**
   * Removes the Blob_stream_mq_sender and/or Blob_stream_mq_receiver persistent resources associated with
   * a Persistent_mq_handle with the given name.  Please see Cleanup in Blob_stream_mq_sender doc header for
   * context; and note it applies equally to Blob_stream_mq_receiver.  In short: Those classes gracefully
   * clean up by themselves, via their dtors; but an abort (or two) may prevent this from occurring -- in which
   * case one should do one of the following:
   *   - If the name of the potentially-leaked MQ is known: Call this function, remove_persistent().
   *   - If not, but you used a name-prefix-based scheme: Call
   *     `remove_each_persistent_with_name_prefix<Blob_stream_mq_base>()`, providing the applicable name prefix.
   *     It will invoke remove_persistent() (and for_each_persistent()) internally as needed.
   *
   * Trying to remove a non-existent name *is* an error; but typically one should ignore any error, since the
   * function is meant for best-effort cleanup in case a leak occurred earlier due to abort(s).
   *
   * Logs INFO message.
   *
   * ### Rationale ###
   * Why does this exist, when Persistent_mq_handle::remove_persistent() is available?  Answer:
   * Blob_stream_mq_base sub-classes require certain internal resources (tiny SHM pools as of this writing)
   * to ensure a single sender and single receiver per MQ (a limitation not imposed by the lower-level
   * Persistent_mq_handle construct).
   *
   * @param logger_ptr
   *        Logger to use for subsequently logging.
   * @param name
   *        Absolute name at which the persistent MQ (fed to Blob_stream_mq_sender and/or
   *        Blob_stream_mq_receiver ctor) lives.
   * @param err_code
   *        See `flow::Error_code` docs for error reporting semantics.  #Error_code generated:
   *        various.
