Subject: [PATCH 14/83] Grow: block -n on external volumes.

Performing --raid-devices on external metadata volume should be blocked
as it causes unwanted behaviour.

Eg. Performing
mdadm -G /dev/md/volume -l10 -n4
on r0_d2 inside 4 disk container, returns
mdadm: Need 2 spares to avoid degraded array, only have 0.
