Update reprepro cleanup docs to cover dists/ and lists/ cleanup 

This includes a few extra steps that are needed to more fully cleanup
reprepro mirrors when we drop distro releases from reprepro. Without
this we leave some vestiges of old releases behind which can be
confusing in the future when we think we have already cleaned this stuff
up.
