1954. Minimum Garden Perimeter to Collect Enough Apples
https://leetcode.com/problems/minimum-garden-perimeter-to-collect-enough-apples
Description
In a garden represented as an infinite 2D grid, there is an apple tree planted at every integer coordinate. The apple tree planted at an integer coordinate (i, j) has |i| + |j| apples growing on it.
You will buy an axis-aligned square plot of land that is centered at (0, 0).
Given an integer neededApples, return the minimum perimeter of a plot such that at leastneededApples apples are inside or on the perimeter of that plot.
The value of |x| is defined as:
xifx >= 0-xifx < 0
Example 1:

**Input:** neededApples = 1
**Output:** 8
**Explanation:** A square plot of side length 1 does not contain any apples.
However, a square plot of side length 2 has 12 apples inside (as depicted in the image above).
The perimeter is 2 * 4 = 8.Example 2:
**Input:** neededApples = 13
**Output:** 16Example 3:
**Input:** neededApples = 1000000000
**Output:** 5040Constraints:
1 <= neededApples <= 1015
