Adding index bloat link to home page.

[philmcc]

This is a really minor change. The index bloat page is really useful but, there is no link to it that I can find.

This change just adds it into the main nav menu so that you can get to it easily.

Hey @philmcc, thanks for the PR 👍 The page is still experimental, which is why it's not there. There's a commented out link on the space page, which I think is a better place for it if it turns out to be useful.

Bumping this old issue. Is reporting index bloat as a feature less experimental now? It might be nice to have this front and center for our app. I believe PG 12 introduced REINDEX CONCURRENTLY which can address fragmented indexes. PG < 12 users could be encouraged to upgrade, although my understanding is there is also an index name swap strategy for PG < 12 that could be done to re-index.

What criteria would need to be met in order to move this feature out of being experimental? Are you looking for test users in the wild?

I suppose we could also rig up our install to show bloated indexes with the extended=1 query param (sort of like the unused indexes)? Would you recommend that?
