Introduce openstack.cloud.volume_retype, a new module that wraps
the Cinder os-retype block storage action (POST /volumes/{id}/action)
to change the type of an existing volume.
The module supports both migration policies exposed by the Cinder API:
- 'never' – changes volume type metadata only; requires source and
target types to share the same storage backend.
- 'on-demand' – triggers a full data migration to the backend
associated with the new volume type.
The module is idempotent: if the volume already carries the requested
type no API call is made and changed=false is returned. It also
honours Ansible check mode, resolving the volume and target type to
verify feasibility without mutating any state.
A wait/timeout mechanism is included. For on-demand retypes the module
polls migration_status until 'success' or 'error'. For never retypes
it polls volume status until 'available'.
The equivalent CLI command is:
openstack volume set --type <type> --retype-policy <policy> <vol>
This closes a gap in the collection: openstack.cloud.volume handles
create/delete/update but does not expose the retype action.
Integration tests are provided covering: basic retype, idempotency,
check mode, lookup by UUID, and error handling for missing volume
and missing volume type.

This module introduces the ability to set image metadata
which is distinct from regualt volume metadata, and is
required for correct boot-from-volume behaviour.
This allows workflows such as replication and disaster
recovery to correctly preserve image provenance and
Nova boot semantics.
