#1024: inveniocfg --drop-tables and var/data/files

Currently one my think that {{{inveniocfg --drop-tables}}} will entirely
wipe an Invenio instance. This is mostly true but it will not touch any
file on disk. In particular files attached to Invenio records will stay on
disk under {{{var/data/files}}}. If then the user load again new records
these files will stay on the way.
Either {{{--drop-tables}}} should also take care of removing files from
disk (since their implicitly part of the data, although not stored in
tables), all we should introduce a new {{{--drop-files}}} argument and we
should recommend its usage for properly wiping out an Invenio instance.
