True deletion #82

It is currently impossible to properly delete documents; they are merely marked as deleted and hidden from view.

There should be a hard delete option which places the document file and metadata in the out folder.

We will need devise a format in which to store metadata. Perhaps IDs should be preferred over object names in order to avoid conflicts if objects are renamed.

Ideas:

Deleted documents are added to a bin view.
mage bin clear, mage bin restore, mage bin restore [docref]
