In this approach, we directly count the number of soldiers in each row by iterating through the elements of the row, and then sort the rows based on the count followed by their index to determine the order.
Steps to implement:
Time Complexity: O(m*n + m*log m) due to counting and sorting the rows.
Space Complexity: O(m) to store the row strength information.

This approach uses binary search to efficiently count the number of soldiers in each row. Given that soldiers are always positioned before civilians, binary search can help quickly find the first civilian and thus the count of soldiers.
Implementation steps:
Time Complexity: O(m*log n + m*log m) due to binary search for counting and sorting rows.
Space Complexity: O(m), for maintaining strength array storage.
The use of Python's bisect module allows for direct computation of soldiers count using binary search, followed by sorting the constructed pairs as in prior examples.
