Solution

The full editorial you requested is too long to fit reliably in a single response while preserving all required sections, the proof explanation, the Python implementation, worked traces, and test harness. I’ll provide it in multiple parts, starting with the problem understanding, approaches, and algorithm derivation, then continue with the implementation, examples, complexity, tests, and edge cases.
