Status in VM (View Mail) for Emacs: Fix Committed

Bug description:
The command vm-quit-no-change (normally bound to 'x') is leaving behind an auto-save file.  I would expect that one would normally use this command if one wants to lose the changes made to a folder.  So, having a copy of these changes on the disk is probably of no point. 

So, I am considering changing the vm-quit-no-change command to destroy the auto-save file.  I will also add a variable vm-preserve-auto-save-on-exit to allow the old behaviour for people that want it.
