Description

@VladDBA

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Some folks slap PAGE compression on active heaps without reading the documentation, unaware that new records will only be row compressed unless the inserts are handled in a specific way or the heap undergoes a rebuild after new data is added.

Describe the solution you'd like

sp_BlitzIndex ran with @Mode=0 or @Mode=4 should also return information about page-compressed heaps.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Hoping that people read the docs before randomly pushing buttons.

Are you ready to build the code for the feature?

Yup, PR incoming.
