Rewrite as four-dimensional route finding
The grid isn't just a 2D grid. The constraints make it 4D:
* X
* Y
* Last direction
* Number of steps in that direction
By tracking all four dimensions, we can find the shortest route
for _all_ combinations of the constraint. Previously, we were dropping
routes that were currently longer but ended up shorter because
they could take subsequent steps that other routes couldn't.
