/**
 * 329. Longest Increasing Path in a Matrix
 * https://leetcode.com/problems/longest-increasing-path-in-a-matrix/
 * Difficulty: Hard
 *
 * Given an m x n integers matrix, return the length of the longest increasing path in matrix.
 *
 * From each cell, you can either move in four directions: left, right, up, or down. You may
 * not move diagonally or move outside the boundary (i.e., wrap-around is not allowed).
