If you have a field in the profile, and users fill in that field, and
later that field is deleted all together, the entry in the
profile_fields table is deleted, but the values for that field in
profile_values aren't deleted.

Found where the field was deleted in profile.module and added a line to
delete the field values from profile_values.

This is a patch of the db-cleanup code that jmengle added.
