Description

Is there any ways to specify which partitions to be compacted?
For example, in a date-based partitioning scenario, we can specify which partitions to merge, such as only the last seven days.
We can also provide a regex to specify partitions which match its pattern to be compacted!
By the way, If there is no corresponding method at present, I would like to propose a pr to contribute my own implementation~
