97\. Interleaving String
Medium
Given strings `s1`, `s2`, and `s3`, find whether `s3` is formed by an **interleaving** of `s1` and `s2`.
An **interleaving** of two strings `s` and `t` is a configuration where they are divided into **non-empty** substrings such that:
* s = s1 + s2 + ... + sn
* t = t1 + t2 + ... + tm
* `|n - m| <= 1`
* The **interleaving** is s1 + t1 + s2 + t2 + s3 + t3 + ...
or t1 + s1 + t2 + s2 + t3 + s3 + ...
**Note:** `a + b` is the concatenation of strings `a` and `b`.
**Example 1:**
![](https://assets.leetcode.com/uploads/2020/09/02/interleave.jpg)
**Input:** s1 = "aabcc", s2 = "dbbca", s3 = "aadbbcbcac"
**Output:** true
**Example 2:**
**Input:** s1 = "aabcc", s2 = "dbbca", s3 = "aadbbbaccc"
**Output:** false
**Example 3:**
**Input:** s1 = "", s2 = "", s3 = ""
**Output:** true
**Constraints:**
* `0 <= s1.length, s2.length <= 100`
* `0 <= s3.length <= 200`
* `s1`, `s2`, and `s3` consist of lowercase English letters.
**Follow up:** Could you solve it using only `O(s2.length)` additional memory space?
