2109\. Adding Spaces to a String
Medium
You are given a **0-indexed** string `s` and a **0-indexed** integer array `spaces` that describes the indices in the original string where spaces will be added. Each space should be inserted **before** the character at the given index.
* For example, given `s = "EnjoyYourCoffee"` and `spaces = [5, 9]`, we place spaces before `'Y'` and `'C'`, which are at indices `5` and `9` respectively. Thus, we obtain `"Enjoy **Y**our **C**offee"`.
Return _the modified string **after** the spaces have been added._
**Example 1:**
**Input:** s = "LeetcodeHelpsMeLearn", spaces = [8,13,15]
**Output:** "Leetcode Helps Me Learn"
**Explanation:**
The indices 8, 13, and 15 correspond to the underlined characters in "Leetcode**H**elps**M**e**L**earn".
We then place spaces before those characters.
**Example 2:**
**Input:** s = "icodeinpython", spaces = [1,5,7,9]
**Output:** "i code in py thon"
**Explanation:**
The indices 1, 5, 7, and 9 correspond to the underlined characters in "i**c**ode**i**n**p**y**t**hon".
We then place spaces before those characters.
**Example 3:**
**Input:** s = "spacing", spaces = [0,1,2,3,4,5,6]
**Output:** " s p a c i n g"
**Explanation:** We are also able to place spaces before the first character of the string.
**Constraints:**
* 1 <= s.length <= 3 * 105
* `s` consists only of lowercase and uppercase English letters.
* 1 <= spaces.length <= 3 * 105
* `0 <= spaces[i] <= s.length - 1`
* All the values of `spaces` are **strictly increasing**.
