Describe the bug
When bulk deleting VSAM data sets, the tree view is reloaded after every individual deletion. If a large number of data sets are being deleted, this results in many calls to the dataset list APIs, which renders further actions (i.e. a new dataset filter) completely unresponsive until the queued list operations are completed.
To Reproduce
Attempt to delete a number (~25) of VSAM data sets with multi-select, and observe the Output view for Zowe Explorer.
Expected behavior
Nodes disappear as each delete succeeds, and the list is refreshed once all operations are completed. The Tree UI is responsive once all operations complete.
