1278\. Palindrome Partitioning III
Hard
You are given a string `s` containing lowercase letters and an integer `k`. You need to :
* First, change some characters of `s` to other lowercase English letters.
* Then divide `s` into `k` non-empty disjoint substrings such that each substring is a palindrome.
Return _the minimal number of characters that you need to change to divide the string_.
**Example 1:**
**Input:** s = "abc", k = 2
**Output:** 1
**Explanation:** You can split the string into "ab" and "c", and change 1 character in "ab" to make it palindrome.
**Example 2:**
**Input:** s = "aabbc", k = 3
**Output:** 0
**Explanation:** You can split the string into "aa", "bb" and "c", all of them are palindrome.
**Example 3:**
**Input:** s = "leetcode", k = 8
**Output:** 0
**Constraints:**
* `1 <= k <= s.length <= 100`.
* `s` only contains lowercase English letters.
