[Bug 1954311] Re: Daily cron job script unnecessarily executes `find` with `rm` instead of using its '-delete' action

Replaced -prune with -maxdepth 1 because -delete automatically turns on
-depth.

Reverted the second command back to its original state as -delete can't
delete directories that aren't empty.

Title:
  Daily cron job script unnecessarily executes `find` with `rm` instead
  of using its '-delete' action

Status in apport package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Executing `rm` as a separate process each time for every single file
  is unnecessary and inefficient. The option '-delete' should be used
  instead.

  Patch is included below.
