Add ability to deregister a or all devices. I have named this sub cmd
as deregister, but I am open to your suggestions.
Further I am using /dev/btrfs-control and struct btrfs_ioctl_vol_args
for now, just similar to other ioctls in super.c including btrfs dev
scan, if rather it makes sense to use btrfs_ioctl_vol_args_v2 I shall.
Oepn to suggestions.
