Commit 3288b419 (Revert "Incremental: honor --no-degraded to delay assembly") killed the --no-degraded flag since commit 97b4d0e9 (Incremental: honor an 'enough' flag from external handlers) made this the default behavior of -I, and brought -I usage for external/container formats in line with native metadata. However, this breaks existing usages of '-I --no-degraded', so allow it as a deprecated option. Starting a degraded container, like the native metadata case, requires -R.
