  1. Wildcard Matching

Given an input string (s) and a pattern (p), implement wildcard pattern matching with support for '?' and '*' where:

'?' Matches any single character.

'*' Matches any sequence of characters (including the empty sequence).

The matching should cover the entire input string (not partial).

Ex

Example 1:

Input: s = "aa", p = "a"
Output: false
Explanation: "a" does not match the entire string "aa".

Example 2:

Input: s = "aa", p = "*"
Output: true
Explanation: '*' matches any sequence.

Example 3:

Input: s = "cb", p = "?a"
Output: false
Explanation: '?' matches 'c', but the second letter is 'a', which does not match 'b'.

Constraints:

0 <= s.length, p.length <= 2000

s contains only lowercase English letters.

p contains only lowercase English letters, '?' or '*'.
