Comment (by dd32):

 In [changeset:"13959" 13959]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="13959"
 Plugin Directory: Release Confirmation: Remove releases for deleted tags
 earlier.

 When a SVN tag is removed the relevant release is deleted [13711], but
 that only applied when release confirmation was enabled.

 As of the changes in #7696 releases now exist even if release confiramtion
 isn't enabled, as such as should always remove any release meta for any
 non-explicitely-confirmed releases.

 This also has the effect of resolving an edge-case where the deleted tag
 is present within trunk/readme.txt as the `Stable Tag` but the release was
 discarded/not-confirmed, in that case `$stable_tag` would be set to the
 fallback value of 'trunk' for the SVN import and ultimately release
 confirmation would reject the import (as trunk is not currently valid for
 that scenario).
 That would cause the release NOT to be deleted, although the tag was.
 Replacing the tag with the corrected data would not re-trigger the
 confirmation process if the release was previously discarded.

 See #7696, #5900.
