Remove previous images after upgrade

[BrookeDot]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
When upgrading from about.php the recent images are downloaded into /home/fpp/media/uploads/*.fppos these images must be manually removed. As they can be quite large (about 1GB each) an option to remove them would allow space to be cleared.

Describe the solution you'd like
While is could be unwise to automatically remove these old images, an option to remove them from the UI would be nice. Even a checkbox that says "remove old images" when upgrading. Otherwise a new option screen to manage these images.

Describe alternatives you've considered
I removed the images manually. In my case I just removed the 8.x images. My disk usage dropped from 70+% to 40%

I could likely be more aggressive and remove the 9.x images but don't fully understand the advantage of keeping old images around.

You can already remove them from Content Setup -File Manager, no shell access required.

Thanks @cybercop23 that makes sense. Seems more of a UX/UI thing than an actual limited feature.

This may change this Issue, but wonder if uploads should be added to the file list, or below disk utilization it says "manage files" and links to the file manager.
