Description
When a local video is uploaded to VideoPress using the dashboard button, and then is deleted from VideoPress, it's still showing the uploaded status on the dashboard:
Checking the video data, the `is_uploaded ` field is still set to true.
This field is defined by checking if a given meta key is defined on the attachment: https://github.com/Automattic/jetpack/blob/trunk/projects/packages/videopress/src/class-uploader.php#L174-L185
We need to make sure we are deleting this key after the video is deleted from VideoPress.

Research direction
Start in projects/packages/videopress/src/class-uploader.php, especially lines 174-185 where the is_uploaded value is determined, then trace the VideoPress deletion flow. Ensure the attachment meta key used for that status is removed when the video is deleted, so the dashboard no longer reports it as uploaded.
