Workspace Method diameter_volume_equFromDiameter_max

Description

Converts from maximum to volume equivalent diameter.

This is primarily a help function for using the T-matrix part
and only a few particle shapes are handled. 
For shapes handled and further comments on the input arguments,
see scat_data_singleTmatrix.

Also the volume is provided. It is simply sqrt(pi*dveq^3/6).
