<p>A storekeeper is a game in which the player pushes boxes around in a warehouse trying to get them to target locations.</p>

<p>The game is represented by an <code>m x n</code> grid of characters <code>grid</code> where each element is a wall, floor, or box.</p>

<p>Your task is to move the box <code>&#39;B&#39;</code> to the target position <code>&#39;T&#39;</code> under the following rules:</p>

<ul>
	<li>The character <code>&#39;S&#39;</code> represents the player. The player can move up, down, left, right in <code>grid</code> if it is a floor (empty cell).</li>
	<li>The character <code>&#39;.&#39;</code> represents the floor which means a free cell to walk.</li>
	<li>The character<font face="monospace">&nbsp;</font><code>&#39;#&#39;</code><font face="monospace">&nbsp;</font>represents the wall which means an obstacle (impossible to walk there).</li>
	<li>There is only one box <code>&#39;B&#39;</code> and one target cell <code>&#39;T&#39;</code> in the <code>grid</code>.</li>
	<li>The box can be moved to an adjacent free cell by standing next to the box and then moving in the direction of the box. This is a <strong>push</strong>.</li>
	<li>The player cannot walk through the box.</li>
</ul>

<p>Return <em>the minimum number of <strong>pushes</strong> to move the box to the target</em>. If there is no way to reach the target, return <code>-1</code>.</p>
