Feature Request: ability to downgrade RAID-1 to jbod.

Although downgrading established RAID modes is technically very difficult, there is a special case of RAID-1 back to JBOD which is easy.

Since there have been many users over the years who assumed that the disk they added would be JBOD (or spanning RAID-0), I think it would be useful to have a way to revert RAID-1 to JBOD w/o needing to destroy the volume/restore data from backup.

This could be an option in flexraid (OS 6 only of course).
