Add a new type of document: leaked original

The current situation focuses a lot on what the document is intended to do: legal document, etc... But there are a few corner cases that are not covered.

   

By adding the possibility that the original intent was subverted, some corner cases are enabled. I specifically noticed when I tried to create a document for the original recordings of the life of a character, who were posthumously gathered to make a book(which exists, as a document, literary, subtype manuscript I think). But then the original recordings, which were leaked, would be exactly the same type, which feels less ideal.

   

I specifically think that in 2021, with the panama papers, etc... coming out, having a type for leaks, might enable modern use cases. I also think they're part and parcel of cyberpunk genre, and having 'hijacked' documents as a use case might make some things more clear for content creators on the platform.
