md: add ->takeover method to support changing the personality managing an array

Implement this for RAID6 to be able to 'takeover' a RAID5 array.  The
new RAID6 will use a layout which places Q on the last device, and
that device will be missing.
If there are any available spares, one will immediately have Q
recovered onto it.
