Nautilus shows wrong trash icon if not emptied before unplugging external drive

[computer_freak_8]

What ends up happening:
- You have a "full" trash icon
- You can see zero files in the trash
- Emptying the trash has no effect, whether from GUI, from gvfs-trash --empty, or gio trash --empty.
- Terminal shows "files", "expunged", and "info" folders all completely empty at ~/.local/share/Trash. - Even deleting the ~/.local/share/Trash folder entirely has no effect.
- Killing and restarting Nautilus has no effect.

How to reproduce:
1. Delete a file from an external drive
2. Remove the external drive from the machine
3. Attempt to empty the trash and observe this behavior
