[wi 84143] Prevent Assets from Ever Being Deleted

We would like to be able to prevent assets from being deleted. We want users to always retire assets. This goes for administrators as well. Currently, there is no way to do this in RAM. Also, there is no way to recover a deleted asset in RAM, so unless an undelete function is added, we need to be able to prevent people from deleting assets at all.

    This RFE's Headline was changed after submission to reflect the headline of an internal request we were already considering, but will now track here.
