Maximum Amount of Money Robot Can Earn 
You are given an m x n grid. A robot starts at the top-left corner of the grid (0, 0) and wants to reach the bottom-right corner (m - 1, n - 1). The robot can move either right or down at any point in time.
The grid contains a value coins[i][j] in each cell:
1
2
If coins[i][j] >= 0, the robot gains that many coins.
If coins[i][j] < 0, the robot encounters a robber, and the robber steals the **absolute** value of coins[i][j] coins.
The robot has a special ability to neutralize robbers in at most 2 cells on its path, preventing them from stealing coins in those cells.
Note: The robot’s total coins can be negative.
Return the maximum profit the robot can gain on the route.
Example 1:
Input: coins = [[0,1,-1],[1,-2,3],[2,-3,4]]
Output: 8
Explanation:
An optimal path for maximum coins is:
1
2
3
4
5
Start at (0, 0) with 0 coins (total coins = 0).
Move to (0, 1), gaining 1 coin (total coins = 0 + 1 = 1).
Move to (1, 1), where there's a robber stealing 2 coins. The robot uses one neutralization here, avoiding the robbery (total coins = 1).
Move to (1, 2), gaining 3 coins (total coins = 1 + 3 = 4).
Move to (2, 2), gaining 4 coins (total coins = 4 + 4 = 8).
Example 2:
Input: coins = [[10,10,10],[10,10,10]]
Output: 40
Explanation:
An optimal path for maximum coins is:
1
2
3
4
Start at (0, 0) with 10 coins (total coins = 10).
Move to (0, 1), gaining 10 coins (total coins = 10 + 10 = 20).
Move to (0, 2), gaining another 10 coins (total coins = 20 + 10 = 30).
Move to (1, 2), gaining the final 10 coins (total coins = 30 + 10 = 40).
Constraints:
