a background clean up task to permanently delete the empty primary document's
duplicate document entry from the database.
Storage
-------
It is now possible to pass arguments to the document, document cache and
document signatures storage backends. To pass the arguments, use the new
settings: DOCUMENTS_STORAGE_BACKEND_ARGUMENTS,
DOCUMENTS_CACHE_STORAGE_BACKEND_ARGUMENTS, and SIGNATURES_STORAGE_BACKEND_ARGUMENTS.
The FileBasedStorage driver originally provided has been removed.
With this change the setting STORAGE_FILESTORAGE_LOCATION has also been removed.
The storage driver now default to Django's own FileSystemStorage driver.
By using this driver each app is responsible of specifying their storage
path. The path path (or location) is configure via the
DOCUMENTS_STORAGE_BACKEND_ARGUMENTS, DOCUMENTS_CACHE_STORAGE_BACKEND_ARGUMENTS, or
SIGNATURES_STORAGE_BACKEND_ARGUMENTS for the documents, document cache and document signatures respectively.
For example, to change the document storage location use:
DOCUMENTS_STORAGE_BACKEND_ARGUMENTS = '{ location: <specific_path> }'
If no path is specified the backend will default to 'mayan/media/document_storage'.
Finally, to standardize the way app use storage, the .storages modules is now used
instead of the .runtime module.
