/***************************************************************************************
*
* Given a nested list of integers represented as a string, implement a parser to
* deserialize it.
*
* Each element is either an integer, or a list -- whose elements may also be integers
* or other lists.
*
* Note:
* You may assume that the string is well-formed:
*
* String is non-empty.
* String does not contain white spaces.
* String contains only digits 0-9, [, - ,, ].
*
* Example 1:
*
* Given s = "324",
*
* You should return a NestedInteger object which contains a single integer 324.
*
* Example 2:
*
* Given s = "[123,[456,[789]]]",
*
* Return a NestedInteger object containing a nested list with 2 elements:
*
* 1. An integer containing value 123.
* 2. A nested list containing two elements:
* i. An integer containing value 456.
* ii. A nested list with one element:
* a. An integer containing value 789.
