Description of problem:

If a previous import attempt left an importer created on pulp and a new import task is created with the same source tarball, the new task fails complaining about the importer already being created.

There's no easy way to cleanup the importer (from a user perspective).

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

How reproducible:

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start an import task
2. make the import task fail unexpectedly (kill the worker importing it, for example)
3. cancel/cleanup the task (if you skip the failed step and resume, the importer will be removed)
4. Cleanup the imported CV on Foreman Server
5. Try importing again

Actual results:

1. hammer content-import version --organization-id 5 --path /var/lib/pulp/imports/test3_kickstart_rhel7/1.0/2022-01-14T11-34-09-05-00/

Expected results:

Import should work anyway or at least return a more meaningful error.
