The dataset compatible TIBOTable should have EmptyTable available. For the
native components, use an TIB_DSQL with SQL like DELETE FROM <table>
without a where clause. The delete itself won't take long, but garbage
collection the next time you e.g. issue a SELECT may be expensive depending
on your indexes and size of the table before the delete.
