Description

I would like to suggesta new WP-CLI command: wp db status

The command would provide a concise, read-only overview of the current WordPress database health and configuration in a single output, reducing the need to run multiple separate commands.

For support, debugging, and hosting diagnostics, it would be beneficial to have a single, non-destructive command that aggregates key database information into one quick report.

Currently, checking database status requires running several commands such as: wp db size, wp db tables, wp db prefix, wp db check, etc.

My Proposed Command:

wp db status

Output Example:
Database Name:     wp_mehrazmorshed
Tables:            54
Total Size:        312 MB
Prefix:            wp_
Engine:            InnoDB
Charset:           utf8mb4
Collation:         utf8mb4_unicode_ci
Check Status:      OK
