+1, looks good to me
could you add a NEWS.txt entry describing the feature and I'll get it committed?

> When there are no other compactions to do, we trigger a single-sstable
> compaction if there is more than X% droppable tombstones in the sstable.
> In this ticket we should try to include overlapping sstables in those
> compactions to be able to actually drop the tombstones. Might only be doable
> with LCS (with STCS we would probably end up including all sstables)
