41. First Missing Positive
https://leetcode.com/problems/first-missing-positive/
Given an unsorted integer array, find the smallest missing positive integer.
Example 1:
Input: [1,2,0] Output: 3
Example 2:
Input: [3,4,-1,1] Output: 2
Example 3:
Input: [7,8,9,11,12] Output: 1
Note:
Your algorithm should run in O(n) time and uses constant extra space.
