[frameworks-solid] [Bug 270808] KDE should spin-down external hard disks when 'safely removed'

There is currently no way to remove external disks safely in KDE.

`udisksctl power-off --block-device /dev/sdb` spins down the disk for about a
second, before KDE spins it back up.

Workarounds:
1) Turn off your computer, remove disk, turn on your computer.
2) Kill X server, udiskctl spin down, start X server

Those workarounds should be satisfactory enough for everybody. /rant
