Given a string S and a string T, find the minimum window in S which will contain all the characters in T in complexity O(n).

**Example:**

Input: S = "ADOBECODEBANC", T = "ABC"
    Output: "BANC"

**Note:**

*  If there is no such window in S that covers all characters in T, return the empty string `""`.
 *  If there is such window, you are guaranteed that there will always be only one unique minimum window in S.

> 第一次：移动窗口法：设置left和right两个指针，当t的字符没有全都包含在窗口（left与right之间）中时，向右移动right， 当窗口中包含t时，此时向右移动left指针，每移动一次left，判断此时窗口是否还包含t，当包含时，left指针继续右移，否则记录此时left与right的位置，与保存窗口信息的res比较，更新最短窗口信息。主要思考：怎么验证窗口中否全都包含了t？采用字典，记录每个字母出现的次数，看t中字母出现的次数是否与窗口中的次数相同！
