/**
 * 336. Palindrome Pairs
 * https://leetcode.com/problems/palindrome-pairs/
 * Difficulty: Hard
 *
 * You are given a 0-indexed array of unique strings words.
 *
 * A palindrome pair is a pair of integers (i, j) such that:
 * - 0 <= i, j < words.length,
 * - i != j, and
 * - words[i] + words[j] (the concatenation of the two strings) is a palindrome.
 *
 * Return an array of all the palindrome pairs of words.
 *
 * You must write an algorithm with O(sum of words[i].length) runtime complexity.
