Single field Text Index being reported as "Compound"

      Compass Version 1.29.6 (1.29.6)

      Problem Statement/Rationale

      When a single field text index (not compound) is displayed in Compass (Version 1.29.6 (1.29.6)), it shows as being a compound index under its properties. This seems to be due to text indexes having a key definition of key:

      { _fts: 'text', _ftsx: 1 }

      Steps to Reproduce

      Create a single field text index, such as db.myTest.createIndex(

      {a:"text"}

      ). View the properties of the index in Compass, and it should show "COMPOUND".

      Expected Results

      It should not be displayed as a compound index. Text indexes are always sparse, so it should have a property of sparse. That's how it works in the Atlas UI.

      Actual Results

      It incorrectly shows the single field index as being a compound index

      Additional Notes

      This varying behavior has caused confusion for users when viewing an index in Compass vs Atlas. Screenshots attached for the same index when viewed in Compass and Atlas.
