Performs garbage collection of stale index entries during a regular compaction.
A CompactionTransaction is concerned with cleaning up stale index entries.
When multiple versions of a row are compacted, the CompactionTransaction is
notified of the versions being merged, which it diffs against the merge result.
Instances are currently scoped to a single row within a partition, but this could be improved to batch process
multiple rows within a single partition.
