bans currently don't create explicit records for all content that was removed with them.

when a user gets banned from an instance or a community, there is an option to remove content along with the ban. in those cases, all content within the scope of the ban gets removed as well, but no individual modlog entries for the content are created.

modlog entries also disappear when the associated object gets purged, which results in a deletion from the database, but that will result in a purge modlog entry.
