 """ Converts the given value to a ``UsedVolume`` or ``SharedVolume`` tuple for attached volumes. It accepts strings, lists, tuples, and dicts as input. For strings and collections of a single element, the first item is considered to be an alias for lookup on the map. It is converted to a ``SharedVolume`` tuple. For two-element collections, the first item defines a new volume alias that can be re-used by other instances and the second item is considered to be the mount point for the volume. All attached volumes are considered as read-write access. :param value: Input value for conversion. :return: UsedVolume or SharedVolume tuple. :rtype: UsedVolume | SharedVolume """
