splitsec2 d99e9d7c4f fix(download): remove a cancelled torrent that never started (#1421)
Cancelling a torrent download leaves the torrent in the client.
`_safe_remove_download` documents the rule: "torrents: never remove or
delete client data (avoid breaking seeding)". That makes sense for a
torrent that has data. A torrent that is still at 0% has nothing to seed
and nothing to resume, and leaving it behind holds a download slot in
qBittorrent's queue or sits there as a dead entry.

I hit this on a qBittorrent that is shared with Sonarr, Radarr and
Lidarr and has a download limit. Shelfmark cancelled downloads that were
queued (#1420) and left them in the client. Three torrents that never
fetched metadata held every active slot, and each torrent added after
them waited behind them. Removing those by hand freed the slots.

This removes the torrent and its files when a download is cancelled,
Shelfmark added the torrent, and the client reports 0% progress. A
torrent with any data is left alone as before. So is one that was
already in the client when the download started, since Shelfmark didn't
add it. If the removal fails it is logged and the cancel carries on.

Tests cover removal at 0% for a queued and a downloading torrent,
leaving one that has data, leaving one the user already had, and a
failing removal. The full suite passes, and I broke each rule on purpose
to check a test catches it.

This changes a rule you wrote down, so I've kept it apart from the queue
fix. If you'd rather have it as a setting, or only remove a torrent that
is still queued or fetching metadata, I'm happy to rework it.
