/// Converts the [Iterable] or [Map] to an [ObservableList] or [ObservableMap],
/// respectively. This is a convenience function to make it easier to convert
/// literals into the corresponding observable collection type.
///
/// If [value] is not one of those collection types, or is already [Observable],
/// it will be returned unmodified.
///
/// If [value] is a [Map], the resulting value will use the appropriate kind of
/// backing map: either [HashMap], [LinkedHashMap], or [SplayTreeMap].
///
/// By default this performs a deep conversion, but you can set [deep] to false
/// for a shallow conversion. This does not handle circular data structures.
/// If a conversion is peformed, mutations are only observed to the result of
/// this function. Changing the original collection will not affect it.
