/**
 * 893 - Groups of Special-Equivalent Strings\.
 *
 * Medium
 *
 * You are given an array of strings of the same length `words`.
 *
 * In one **move** , you can swap any two even indexed characters or any two odd indexed characters of a string `words[i]`.
 *
 * Two strings `words[i]` and `words[j]` are **special-equivalent** if after any number of moves, `words[i] == words[j]`.
 *
 * *   For example, `words[i] = "zzxy"` and `words[j] = "xyzz"` are **special-equivalent** because we may make the moves `"zzxy" -> "xzzy" -> "xyzz"`.
 *
 * A **group of special-equivalent strings** from `words` is a non-empty subset of words such that:
 *
 * *   Every pair of strings in the group are special equivalent, and
 * *   The group is the largest size possible (i.e., there is not a string `words[i]` not in the group such that `words[i]` is special-equivalent to every string in the group).
 *
 * Return _the number of **groups of special-equivalent strings** from_ `words`.
 *
 * **Example 1:**
 *
 * **Input:** words = ["abcd","cdab","cbad","xyzz","zzxy","zzyx"]
 *
 * **Output:** 3
 *
 * **Explanation:**
 *
 * One group is ["abcd", "cdab", "cbad"], since they are all pairwise special equivalent, and none of the other
 *
 * strings is all pairwise special equivalent to these.
 *
 * The other two groups are ["xyzz", "zzxy"] and ["zzyx"].
 *
 * Note that in particular, "zzxy" is not special equivalent to "zzyx".
 *
 * **Example 2:**
 *
 * **Input:** words = ["abc","acb","bac","bca","cab","cba"]
 *
 * **Output:** 3
 *
 * **Constraints:**
 *
 * *   `1 <= words.length <= 1000`
 * *   `1 <= words[i].length <= 20`
 * *   `words[i]` consist of lowercase English letters.
 * *   All the strings are of the same length.
