[request-tracker-maintainers] Bug#883472: request-tracker4: rt-externalize-attachments cron job should not be enabled by default

Package: request-tracker4
Version: 4.4.2-1
Severity: normal

In RT 4.4, the rt-externalize-attachments cronjob was added to the list
of cronjobs to set up (if the user asked for cronjobs to be set up
automatically).

Unlike the other cronjobs, this one only works if additional configuration
to use external storage has been put in place, and produces a critical
error otherwise:

[16967] [Fri Dec  1 00:00:04 2017] [critical]: %ExternalStorage is not configured (/usr/share/request-tracker4/lib/RT.pm:394)
%ExternalStorage is not configured

This cron job should not be enabled by default, but should be left
commented out as a hint to the user.
