## What does this PR do?
This PR fixes the bug where a `missing key in documents database` internal error message could appear when indexing documents.

When updating the settings, before clearing the database and before creating the transform output, we now modify the `ExternalDocumentsIds` structure to get rid of all references to soft deleted document ids in its FSTs.

It used to be that updating the settings would clear the soft-deleted document ids, but keep the original `ExternalDocumentsIds` structure. As a consequence of this, when processing a future document addition, we could wrongly believe that a document was being replaced when, in fact, it was a completely new document. See the tests `bug_3021_first`, `bug_3021_second`, and `bug_3021` for a minimal test case that would have reproduced the issue.
 
We need to take special care to:
- evaluate how users should update to v0.30.1 (containing this fix): dump? reimporting all documents from scratch?
- understand IF/HOW this bug could have caused duplicate documents to be returned 
- and evaluate the correctness of the fix, of course :)
