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.
