--description--

Vergleiche und aktualisiere des in einem 2D-Array gespeicherten Bestands mit einem zweiten 2D-Array einer neuen Lieferung. Update the current existing inventory item quantities (in arr1). If an item cannot be found, add the new item and quantity into the inventory array. The returned inventory array should be in alphabetical order by item.

--hints--

Die Funktion updateInventory soll ein Array zurückgeben.

assert.isArray(
  updateInventory(
    [
      [21, 'Bowling Ball'],
      [2, 'Dirty Sock'],
      [1, 'Hair Pin'],

      [2, 'Hair Pin'],
