Description

Currently, compaction happens on the same disk with suffix of ~. Add ability for users to specify some place specific to utilize different volumes etc.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Examine the existing compaction code in the chaindb module. Identify where the compaction directory is hard coded (with suffix '~'). Add a new configuration option to specify a custom path, and update the compaction logic to use it when provided.
