Close personal projects for deactivated users

Description - Support confirmed that personal projects remain open even after a user has been deactivated. Additionally, not even an admin can change the status of a personal project, so it's stuck In Progress forever and ever.

Why is this feature important to you - It's extra labor for me to filter out personal projects that should be dead.

How would you like the feature to work - Upon user deactivation, automatically close personal projects, including the tasks and issues within. Also allow admins to close personal projects.

Current Behaviour - Personal projects remain active in perpetuity and some reports will display data from personal projects unless you intentionally filter them. (Support recommended a couple filtering options as a workaround: Personal = False OR Project owner Is Active = True.)
