Compact: Display TODO plan

[SuperQ]

Is your proposal related to a problem?

It is currently difficult to view what a Thanos Compact instance is currently working on.

Describe the solution you'd like

In the Thanos Compact UI there is visibility of the global block list and loaded block list. But it would be useful to also have a list of planned and currently running compaction groups in order to see what exactly is in progress. This way it would be easier to diagnose what is currently happening, and possibly what is delaying the progress of compactions.

Describe alternatives you've considered

It would also be useful to have this be part of the standard compact Info logging.

Additional context

I have some clusters with very large blocks that need to be compacted, and it's impossible to know the progress of these large blocks.

Can you please point out to the pretest for this project ?

What does this mean?

Some LFX projects have some issues as pretests, which need to be done by the applicant to show their proficiency and understanding of the project. I was asking if such an issue exists for this project.
