Add One To Number Asked in: Google Microsoft
Given a non-negative number represented as an array of digits,
add 1 to the number ( increment the number represented by the digits ).
The digits are stored such that the most significant digit is at the head of the list.
Example:
If the vector has [1, 2, 3]
the returned vector should be [1, 2, 4]
as 123 + 1 = 124
.

- Q : Can the output have 0’s before the most significant digit? Or in other words, is
0 1 2 4
