Description
Currently, the admin trigger of compaction uses the preconfigured compaction policy that has been set in the store config. It will be useful for the admin request to optionally specify a policy (that is different from the one configured) to use.
For e.g., the server may be using a stats based policy but the admin request might want to use the compact all policy.

Research direction
Start by tracing the admin compaction request and how it reads the configured policy from the store config. Determine where an optional policy can be supplied, and consider the work complete when requests can select a different policy while requests without one retain the configured default.
