    <#
    .SYNOPSIS
        Detach a SQL Server Database.

    .DESCRIPTION
        This command detaches one or more SQL Server databases. If necessary, -Force can be used to break mirrors and remove databases from availability groups prior to detaching.

    .PARAMETER SqlInstance
        The target SQL Server instance or instances.

    .PARAMETER SqlCredential
        Login to the target instance using alternative credentials. Accepts PowerShell credentials (Get-Credential).

        Windows Authentication, SQL Server Authentication, Active Directory - Password, and Active Directory - Integrated are all supported.

        For MFA support, please use Connect-DbaInstance.

    .PARAMETER Database
        The database(s) to detach.

    .PARAMETER FileStructure
        A StringCollection object value that contains a list database files. If FileStructure is not specified, BackupHistory will be used to guess the structure.

    .PARAMETER InputObject
        A collection of databases (such as returned by Get-DbaDatabase), to be detached.

    .PARAMETER UpdateStatistics
        If this switch is enabled, statistics for the database will be updated prior to detaching it.

    .PARAMETER Force
        If this switch is enabled and the database is part of a mirror, the mirror will be broken. If the database is part of an Availability Group, it will be removed from the AG.

    .PARAMETER WhatIf
        If this switch is enabled, no actions are performed but informational messages will be displayed that explain what would happen if the command were to run.

    .PARAMETER Confirm
        If this switch is enabled, you will be prompted for confirmation before executing any operations that change state.

    .PARAMETER EnableException
        By default, when something goes wrong we try to catch it, interpret it and give you a friendly warning message.
        This avoids overwhelming you with "sea of red" exceptions, but is inconvenient because it basically disables advanced scripting.
        Using this switch turns this "nice by default" feature off and enables you to catch exceptions with your own try/catch.

    .EXAMPLE
        PS C:\> Detach-DbaDatabase -SqlInstance sql2016b -Database SharePoint_Config, WSS_Logging

        Detaches SharePoint_Config and WSS_Logging from sql2016b

    .EXAMPLE
        PS C:\> Get-DbaDatabase -SqlInstance sql2016b -Database 'PerformancePoint Service Application_10032db0fa0041df8f913f558a5dc0d4' | Detach-DbaDatabase -Force

        Detaches 'PerformancePoint Service Application_10032db0fa0041df8f913f558a5dc0d4' from sql2016b. Since Force was specified, if the database is part of mirror, the mirror will be broken prior to detaching.

        If the database is part of an Availability Group, it will first be dropped prior to detachment.

    .EXAMPLE
        PS C:\> Get-DbaDatabase -SqlInstance sql2016b -Database WSS_Logging | Detach-DbaDatabase -Force -WhatIf

        Shows what would happen if the command were to execute (without actually executing the detach/break/remove commands).
