Re: BACKUP

Issue Description

We don't display the output of a backup job, example:

        job_id       |  status   | fraction_completed |   rows   | index_entries |    bytes
---------------------+-----------+--------------------+----------+---------------+--------------
  755000505408782337 | succeeded |                  1 | 30251288 |      27033035 | 32283149986

and the meaning of the columns. Some might be self-explanatory, but some are tricky, for example, bytes can be very misleading, see slack conversation

Suggested Resolution

Provide an explanation of each field, and an example.

Jira Issue: DOC-3560
