Removes a roster entry from the roster. The roster entry will also be
removed from the unfiled entries or from any roster group where it could
belong and will no longer be part of the roster. Note that this is an
asynchronous call -- Smack must wait for the server to send an updated
subscription status.

@param entry
a roster entry.
@throws XMPPException
if an XMPP error occurs.
@throws IllegalStateException
if connection is not logged in or logged in anonymously
