Harvested datasets are no different from normal datasets, and if there
is an API call to delete a dataset, then it should work with them. The
only issue to note is that it will need to be done by the user that
created (harvested) them in the first place, or a sysadmin.

This API call should work:
curl http://<ckan_instance>/api/3/action/package_delete -d
"{\"id\":\"<package_id>\"}" -H "Authorization: <your_api_key>"
