    76 - Minimum Window Substring.

    Hard

    Given two strings s and t of lengths m and n respectively, return the minimum window substring of s such that every character in t ( including duplicates ) is included in the window. If there is no such substring_, return the empty string_ "".

    The testcases will be generated such that the answer is unique.

    A substring is a contiguous sequence of characters within the string.

    Example 1:

    Input: s = "ADOBECODEBANC", t = "ABC"

    Output: "BANC"

    Explanation: The minimum window substring "BANC" includes 'A', 'B', and 'C' from string t.

    Example 2:

    Input: s = "a", t = "a"

    Output: "a"

    Explanation: The entire string s is the minimum window.

    Example 3:

    Input: s = "a", t = "aa"

    Output: ""

    Explanation: Both 'a's from t must be included in the window. Since the largest window of s only has one 'a', return empty string.

    Constraints:

    • m == s.length

    • n == t.length

    • <code>1 <= m, n <= 10<sup>5</sup></code>

    • s and t consist of uppercase and lowercase English letters.
