use a secure delete if the file is written to the disk

           Summary: use a secure delete if the file is written to the disk
           Product: Commons
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Enhancement
          Priority: Other
         Component: File Upload
        AssignedTo: commons-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: hauser@acm.org


org.apache.commons.fileupload.disk.DiskFileItem just uses a simple java
File.delete().

Especially, when a server using fileupload is sitting in a DMZ, one would want
it to also be physically deleted just like pgp wipe does it.

The right place to provide such a method might be commons-io? (see Bug 32144)
