How big is the device?

Probably. Disable the swap device, enlarge, re-enable.

There's certainly more constraints. The root volume must be contiguous
(it can't be a concatenation of two separated subdisks). That makes it
harder to do.

Since you only have root and swap, I'm not sure it makes much
difference. No disk you add later will ever be "encapsulated". Not
even the first mirror. However the root slice will always be identified
on the root disk and any mirror (this is necessary for booting to
succeed).
I'm not sure if that's the information you want though. Why are you
asking the question?
