[FR] Delete videos from Google Drive after EVENT_RETENTION_DAYS

[yuchenshi]

Is it possible to delete video files from Google Drive after a certain number of days?

I've noticed that EVENT_RETENTION_DAYS triggers DB cleanup but it doesn't seem to affect Google Drive so old videos still take up storage space.

Also, I'm not sure how this interacts with the "fetch_all_events" call every 3 minutes -- wouldn't it fetch all Frigate events, including events before EVENT_RETENTION_DAYS? If so, looking at the code, main.py may add those events back to the DB since those entries no longer exists after cleanup. (I've not tested this myself though.)

Thank you. I'll investigate this after getting healthy again.
