773\. Sliding Puzzle

Hard

On an `2 x 3` board, there are five tiles labeled from `1` to `5`, and an empty square represented by `0`. A **move** consists of choosing `0` and a 4-directionally adjacent number and swapping it.

The state of the board is solved if and only if the board is `[[1,2,3],[4,5,0]]`.

Given the puzzle board `board`, return _the least number of moves required so that the state of the board is solved_. If it is impossible for the state of the board to be solved, return `-1`.

**Example 1:**

![](https://assets.leetcode.com/uploads/2021/06/29/slide1-grid.jpg)

**Input:** board = [[1,2,3],[4,0,5]]

**Output:** 1

**Explanation:** Swap the 0 and the 5 in one move.

**Example 2:**

![](https://assets.leetcode.com/uploads/2021/06/29/slide2-grid.jpg)

**Input:** board = [[1,2,3],[5,4,0]]

**Output:** -1

**Explanation:** No number of moves will make the board solved.

**Example 3:**

![](https://assets.leetcode.com/uploads/2021/06/29/slide3-grid.jpg)

**Input:** board = [[4,1,2],[5,0,3]]

**Output:** 5

**Explanation:** 5 is the smallest number of moves that solves the board. An example path: After move 0: [[4,1,2],[5,0,3]] After move 1: [[4,1,2],[0,5,3]] After move 2: [[0,1,2],[4,5,3]] After move 3: [[1,0,2],[4,5,3]] After move 4: [[1,2,0],[4,5,3]] After move 5: [[1,2,3],[4,5,0]]

**Constraints:**

*   `board.length == 2`
*   `board[i].length == 3`
*   `0 <= board[i][j] <= 5`
*   Each value `board[i][j]` is **unique**.
