controller: allow unmounting the primary drive, stopping the API first

Support swapping in a backup drive: /api/disks/unmount now accepts the
primary mount (previously rejected as reserved). It stops wrolpi-api so
open files are released, then umounts directly since the reconciler
never manages the primary mount. The /etc/fstab entry is left in place
so a reboot restores the mount.

Both UIs now offer Unmount for the primary mount and warn that the API
service will be stopped.
