Sample Code 5-Fingerprint Deletion

Run the codes, press your finger on the sensor to delete your fingerprint.

/*!
 * @file fingerprintDeletion.ino
 * @brief Delete a specific fingerprint 
 * @n Experiment phenomenon：press your finger on the sensor, if this fingerprint is registered, delete it and LED turns on in green. 
      If it is unregistered or fingerprint collection fails, LED light turns on in red.
