Feat: Delete build file after successful installation

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I usually build pretty often so it's annoying when I have my builds lying around when there is a new one available. So it would be great if the old ones were just auto-deleted.

Describe the solution you'd like

After a successful build installation, just delete that build. This can be a setting in the settings that is toggled OFF by default because I'd assume most people would get confused if this was ON by default

Additional context

Hi @ansh, thanks for your suggestion, we already store builds in a temporary path, so your computer automatically deletes them once in a while. One thing that we could do is add a button to the settings screens where users could manually clean the builds folder and delete all cached apps

Thanks for the quick response @gabrieldonadel

What do you mean you already store builds in a temporary path? Do you mean builds downloaded from EAS?

I was referring to local .ipa files that were used.
