Description
When using raiding bombardment pops that are undesirables aren't captured and are destroyed instead.

Game Version
2.8.1 dfce

What version do you use?
Steam

What expansions do you have installed?
All that exist on 2.8.1

Do you have mods enabled?
No

Please explain your issue is in as much detail as possible.
It would be better if either they would get captured or if inability to capture undesirable population using raid bombardment would be written clearly in barbaric despoilers and nihilistic acquisition ascension perk as intended behavior.

Some purge types make your empire stronger such as necrophage and devouring swarm ones. It seems weird that DS would waste food by destroying all of it, similar with necrophages wasting pops for growth.

Steps to reproduce the issue.
Use raiding bombardment on planet that only has undesirable population.
