565\. Array Nesting
Medium
You are given an integer array `nums` of length `n` where `nums` is a permutation of the numbers in the range `[0, n - 1]`.
You should build a set `s[k] = {nums[k], nums[nums[k]], nums[nums[nums[k]]], ... }` subjected to the following rule:
* The first element in `s[k]` starts with the selection of the element `nums[k]` of `index = k`.
* The next element in `s[k]` should be `nums[nums[k]]`, and then `nums[nums[nums[k]]]`, and so on.
* We stop adding right before a duplicate element occurs in `s[k]`.
Return _the longest length of a set_ `s[k]`.
**Example 1:**
**Input:** nums = [5,4,0,3,1,6,2]
**Output:** 4
**Explanation:**
nums[0] = 5, nums[1] = 4, nums[2] = 0, nums[3] = 3, nums[4] = 1, nums[5] = 6, nums[6] = 2.
One of the longest sets s[k]:
s[0] = {nums[0], nums[5], nums[6], nums[2]} = {5, 6, 2, 0}
**Example 2:**
**Input:** nums = [0,1,2]
**Output:** 1
**Constraints:**
* 1 <= nums.length <= 105
* `0 <= nums[i] < nums.length`
* All the values of `nums` are **unique**.
