We don't actually want to erase the metadata -- there's unfortunately no
guarantee that the data we think is raid metadata isn't really, for
example, part of a filesystem.  What we actually need to do is disable
that raid device, add the format to a list of formats to be excluded,
and re-scan for raid devices.

This will require changes to libdmraid and python-pyblock, as well as
anaconda.
