Ensure post deletion is idempotent#959

Practically speaking: a DELETE request to a post resource will ensure the post is trashed. If the post is already trashed, no change will occur. To permanently delete, pass force=true, and it will be permanently deleted regardless of status. This is a change from the previous behaviour of the first DELETE trashing the post, and the second DELETE permanently deleting it.

The second commit here also returns a 410 Gone if you call (Also, still needs testing.) |

As reflected by the low line-count change, this is a pretty simple fix for the bug. This isn't the full solution to #789, as it's clear we need more than this in any case, but the bug needs to be fixed before we can ship beta 1. |
