1405\. Longest Happy String
Medium
A string `s` is called **happy** if it satisfies the following conditions:
* `s` only contains the letters `'a'`, `'b'`, and `'c'`.
* `s` does not contain any of `"aaa"`, `"bbb"`, or `"ccc"` as a substring.
* `s` contains **at most** `a` occurrences of the letter `'a'`.
* `s` contains **at most** `b` occurrences of the letter `'b'`.
* `s` contains **at most** `c` occurrences of the letter `'c'`.
Given three integers `a`, `b`, and `c`, return _the **longest possible happy** string_. If there are multiple longest happy strings, return _any of them_. If there is no such string, return _the empty string_ `""`.
A **substring** is a contiguous sequence of characters within a string.
**Example 1:**
**Input:** a = 1, b = 1, c = 7
**Output:** "ccaccbcc"
**Explanation:** "ccbccacc" would also be a correct answer.
**Example 2:**
**Input:** a = 7, b = 1, c = 0
**Output:** "aabaa"
**Explanation:** It is the only correct answer in this case.
**Constraints:**
* `0 <= a, b, c <= 100`
* `a + b + c > 0`
