qBittorrent 4.3.5 every Operating System

What is the problem

It would be lot better if we could archive a torrent. free some space on the disc, download again if needed.

What is the expected behaviour

There should be an additional option to archive just like pause, resume and delete. and when we click on it, the downloaded files should be deleted from the disc but not the torrent. and the status should not be paused, the torrent just there for in case if needed the same file, you have a great torrent that you familiar with at your disposal. there should be dedicated area for it in side bar as archived for easy access.
