Title:
  Cron job to delete old cached images

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  Given that images are stored cached on disk in a three tier md5
  structure, it is hard to delete all of them at once when the original
  is requested to be deleted.

  A cron job should be written to find all filed older than a certain
  time in the cache and remove them.

  It doesn't matter if the cronjob is a little indiscriminate, as cached
  images will be regenerated on the fly.
