Matt Riedemann 2e1d31a44a api-ref: add multiattach considerations to retype docs
This adds some notes about two things to consider with a volume
retype operation on an in-use multiattach volume:

1. The volume API will reject a retype operation on an in-use volume
   where the volume's multiattach value would change.

2. Retyping an in-use volume that has more than one active read/write
   attachment is not recommended because on the nova side the swap
   volume operation performs a blockRebase which could potentially
   lead to data corruption.

In the future, we (nova or cinder or both) will likely need to make
some changes as to what the default attach_mode is for secondary
attachments to a multiattach volume, since today we default to read/write
if it's not specified by the caller when making the attachment.

Volume actions (volumes, action)
================================
Extends the size of, resets statuses for, sets image metadata for,
and removes image metadata from a volume. Attaches a volume to a
server, detaches a volume from a server, and removes a volume from
Block Storage management without actually removing the back-end
storage object associated with it.
Extend volume size
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
.. rest_method:: POST /v2/{project_id}/volumes/{volume_id}/action
Extends the size of a volume to a requested size, in gibibytes (GiB). Specify the ``os-extend`` action in the request body.
Preconditions
- Volume status must be ``available``.
- Sufficient amount of storage must exist to extend the volume.
- The user quota must have sufficient volume storage.
Troubleshooting
- An ``error_extending`` volume status indicates that the request
failed. Ensure that you meet the preconditions and retry the
request. If the request fails again, investigate the storage back
end.

proper volume host according to the new volume type.
Retyping an *in-use* volume from a multiattach-capable type to a
non-multiattach-capable type, or vice-versa, is not supported. It is generally
not recommended to retype an *in-use* multiattach volume if that volume has
more than one active read/write attachment.
Policy defaults enable only users with the administrative role or the owner of
the volume to perform this operation. Cloud providers can change these
permissions through the policy.json file.
