Bug Description

Currently there two clean steps supported by DracRAID class in Ironic: create_configuration() and delete_configuration(). But disks in a new controllers (such as H330) can be configured in a non-RAID mode by default (passthru). If Ironic will try to create raid with such disk it throw an dracclient exception.

There should be a way (possible by introducing new clean step) to convert disks in a server in a RAID-ready operational mode.

Dracclient library have method `convert_physical_disks()` to do so.

Dell does not have any active driver maintainers in the community at this time, and the community is in the process of deprecating their drivers. As such, moving this to wontfix.
