Patrick,

(This is probably more appropriate on the zfs-discuss list which I have copied.)

I know of no way to simply add the third disk and migrate from a
mirror to a raidz, but I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong.
I would plan on implementing your second alternative which is to
backup, destroy and recreate the pool, and then restore.

Regards,
-Eric
