/**
 * 36. Valid Sudoku
 * https://leetcode.com/problems/valid-sudoku/
 * Difficulty: Medium
 *
 * Determine if a 9x9 Sudoku board is valid.
 * Only the filled cells need to be validated according to the following rules:
 *
 * - Each row must contain the digits 1-9 without repetition.
 * - Each column must contain the digits 1-9 without repetition.
 * - Each of the 9 3x3 sub-boxes of the grid must contain the digits 1-9 without repetition.
 *
 * The Sudoku board could be partially filled, where empty cells are filled with the character '.'.
