/**
* 754 - Reach a Number\.
*
* Medium
*
* You are standing at position `0` on an infinite number line. There is a destination at position `target`.
*
* You can make some number of moves `numMoves` so that:
*
* * On each move, you can either go left or right.
* * During the ith
move (starting from `i == 1` to `i == numMoves`), you take `i` steps in the chosen direction.
*
* Given the integer `target`, return _the **minimum** number of moves required (i.e., the minimum_ `numMoves`_) to reach the destination_.
*
* **Example 1:**
*
* **Input:** target = 2
*
* **Output:** 3
*
* **Explanation:**
*
* On the 1st move, we step from 0 to 1 (1 step).
*
* On the 2nd move, we step from 1 to -1 (2 steps).
*
* On the 3rd move, we step from -1 to 2 (3 steps).
*
* **Example 2:**
*
* **Input:** target = 3
*
* **Output:** 2
*
* **Explanation:**
*
* On the 1st move, we step from 0 to 1 (1 step).
*
* On the 2nd move, we step from 1 to 3 (2 steps).
*
* **Constraints:**
*
* * -109 <= target <= 109
* * `target != 0`
