745\. Prefix and Suffix Search

Hard

Design a special dictionary with some words that searchs the words in it by a prefix and a suffix.

Implement the `WordFilter` class:

*   `WordFilter(string[] words)` Initializes the object with the `words` in the dictionary.
*   `f(string prefix, string suffix)` Returns _the index of the word in the dictionary,_ which has the prefix `prefix` and the suffix `suffix`. If there is more than one valid index, return **the largest** of them. If there is no such word in the dictionary, return `-1`.

**Example 1:**

**Input** 

["WordFilter", "f"] 

[[["apple"]], ["a", "e"]]

**Output:** [null, 0]

**Explanation:** 

    WordFilter wordFilter = new WordFilter(["apple"]); 
    wordFilter.f("a", "e"); // return 0, because the word at index 0 has prefix = "a" and suffix = 'e".

**Constraints:**

*   `1 <= words.length <= 15000`
*   `1 <= words[i].length <= 10`
*   `1 <= prefix.length, suffix.length <= 10`
*   `words[i]`, `prefix` and `suffix` consist of lower-case English letters only.
*   At most `15000` calls will be made to the function `f`.
