This approach involves using Breadth-First Search (BFS) to precompute the minimum Manhattan distance from each cell to any thief in the grid, and then using this information to find the maximum safeness factor for reaching the bottom-right corner.
Time Complexity: O(n2 log n), where n is the grid size, due to the Dijkstra-like process.
Space Complexity: O(n2) for storing distances and safeness factors.

58JavaScript solution leverages a BFS to determine distances from each grid cell to thieves, followed by a priority-based strategy using a max-heap to compile the path with the greatest safeness factor.
This approach considers processing from both the starting and ending points in a bidirectional BFS style, potentially meeting in the middle for optimized distance calculations and safeness factor determination.
Time Complexity: O(n2) due to simultaneous BFS processing.
Space Complexity: O(n2) as distances from both ends are computed.
