This change introduces a new option to the compression procedure which
decouples the uncompressed chunk interval from the compressed chunk
interval. It does this by allowing multiple uncompressed chunks into one
compressed chunk as part of the compression procedure. The main use-case
is to allow much smaller uncompressed chunks than compressed ones. This
has several advantages:
- Reduce the size of btrees on uncompressed data (thus allowing faster
inserts because those indexes are memory-resident).
- Decrease disk-space usage for uncompressed data.
- Reduce number of chunks over historical data.
From a UX point of view, we simple add a compression with clause option
`compress_chunk_time_interval`. The user should set that according to
their needs for constraint exclusion over historical data. Ideally, it
should be a multiple of the uncompressed chunk interval and so we throw
a warning if it is not.
