Given an m x n matrix board containing 'X' and 'O', capture all regions that are 4-directionally surrounded by 'X'.
A region is captured by flipping all 'O's into 'X's in that surrounded region.
Example 1:
Input: board = [["X","X","X","X"],["X","O","O","X"],["X","X","O","X"],["X","O","X","X"]] Output: [["X","X","X","X"],["X","X","X","X"],["X","X","X","X"],["X","O","X","X"]] Explanation: Notice that an 'O' should not be flipped if:
- It is on the border, or
- It is adjacent to an 'O' that should not be flipped. The bottom 'O' is on the border, so it is not flipped. The other three 'O' form a surrounded region, so they are flipped.
Example 2:
Input: board = [["X"]] Output: [["X"]]
Constraints:
m == board.length
n == board[i].length
1 <= m, n <= 200
board[i][j] is 'X' or 'O'.
