Current behaviour

It seems that it is impossible to delete attachments from a note. It's possible to delete the link but the datafile is preserved in the resource folder.

Expected behaviour

In the WYSIWYG editor, the contextual menu of the attachment should offer a "delete..." option which should also erase the associated resouce datafile. In the markup editor it's more tricky to achieve the same result.

See https://discourse.joplinapp.org/t/build-in-clean-up-unused-resourec/35145/2 — at present, unreferenced attachments should be removed periodically, based on the value of the "keep note history for" setting.

Can I manually start the cleanup.
I same my history forever. I've tested to add a video with 3 GB.
I can see the file in the attachments.
I delete the note, I delete the trash, but it's still there and it will never go away because I keep my history forever
