Soft delete for accounts we wish to keep info on

Currently, we are recommended to use deletions for users we don't want coming back and for socks. We've always destroyed spammers.

Unfortunately, this makes us lose some valuable information (IPs, etc) that could be useful later to suss out sockpuppets. It would be nice if we could soft delete a user, which keeps all the post association and IP/email data from the mod POV, but looks the same from the user POV.
