Remove single AG replica
Currently when adding an Availability Group it automatically discover and add all replicas which is great.
However sometime we might not want all replicas to be monitored, in our case it's because of limited bandwidth on a certain asynchronous node. While it is indeed possible to "Pause Monitoring" on that node, it would be nice to be able to delete it completely (using some kind of exception list so it's not re-added automatically).

Apparently the "Paused" replica that we do not want to monitor counts against our licenses so it's suddenly more important for us to be able to truly remove a replica.
