Replace `dvc exp gc` command with `dvc gc`

Summary:
- Extension doesn't provide a way of cleaning up the DVC cache. Removing experiments (either manually or with
exp gc) does not clear the cache. Users might not be aware of the implications of not cleaning the cache (disk space usage, etc) and be confused by thinking thatremovingan experiment also cleans up space.
The current UI for exp gc is good, IMO, and could be reused as-is for dvc gc.
We should find other ways to hint about cache cleaning (button in Source Tree view?)
dvc exp gcwill most likely be removed from DVC (https://github.com/iterative/dvc/issues/7991)- Users already have many different ways in the UI to remove multiple experiments,
exp gcdon't add much value.
