 * https://leetcode.com/problems/rectangle-area/
 * Difficulty: Medium
 *
 * Given the coordinates of two rectilinear rectangles in a 2D plane, return the total area
 * covered by the two rectangles.

 * The first rectangle is defined by its bottom-left corner (ax1, ay1) and its top-right corner
 * (ax2, ay2).
 *
 * The second rectangle is defined by its bottom-left corner (bx1, by1) and its top-right corner
 * (bx2, by2).
