Document and have a dialouge that informs the user that Analysis backfilling does not observe compression settings.

Currently when backfilling an analysis with the PI Buffer Subsystem turned on, all values are sent to the PI Data Archive uncompressed. This is because values are perceived as out of order and these settings are not observed. This should be mentioned in the documentation. This should also appear in the dialogue when backfilling or recalculating.

    This is already available in the PI Server 2017 documentation. We currently do not plan on adding a warning dialog box in PI System Explorer as this would be a description of behavior. We typically do not add dialog boxes for description of behaviors.
