Context
Based on doc, currently ReconstructSome allows to reconstruct only data shards:
While using it, I've found that function api is well suited to compute parity shards also. So limitation comes mostly from doc and some underlying implementation params.
Proposal
Functionality of ReconstructSome might be extended to allow to compute parity shards as well as data shards. It would consume required array, that might contain indexes of parity shards.
There will be no need to change function signature, so backwards compatibility will remain.
