Fixes included in this temporary fix

This temporary fix includes a solution for the concern expressed in APAR JR33524. Publishing server creates files in the WebSphere file system under the installedApps directory. The files are directly related to the artifacts published, however, they are unecessary besides for audit trail purposes. These files can be very large and consume large amounts of disk space. The solution enables automatic deletion of successfully published jobs from both the Publishing server status, as well as the file system.
