update existing assets using csv import without adding "create new" activity

[Koen-ilvo]

Expected Behavior (or desired behavior if a feature request)

When updating an existing asset using csv import, there should not be added a "create new" entry in the activity log, especially not when nothing has been actually updated.

---

Actual Behavior

We do a daily import of our ActiveDirectory to the Snipe-IT inventory. But even for existing assets, csv importer in update mode adds a "create new" action type. The action_logs is filling up with all these new entries. Is it safe to delete these in the database?
