#5636: Retain original plugin upload zips after status change

 Currently, the initial plugin zip that is uploaded for a newly submitted
 plugin is deleted as soon as the plugin is approved and a svn repo is
 created. This occasionally causes a problem because there are
 circumstances when it would be useful to refer to the old zip upload, both
 for approved plugins and for those that wind up with a different status.

 Instead of deleting the attachment on status change, I'd suggest we
 schedule deletion via a cron job:
 * 30 days after changing to a rejected/deleted status; or
 * 12 months after changing to a published status.
