--description--

Given a 3×3 matrix (an array of arrays) representing a completed Tic-Tac-Toe game, determine the winner.

• Each element in the given matrix is either an "X" or "O".

A player wins if they have three of their characters in a row - horizontally, vertically, or diagonally.

Return:

• "X wins" if player X has three in a row.
• "O wins" if player O has three in a row.
• "Draw" if no player has three in a row.

--hints--

ticTacToe([["X", "X", "X"], ["O", "O", "X"], ["O", "X", "O"]]) should return "X wins".

assert.equal(ticTacToe([["X", "X", "X"], ["O", "O", "X"], ["O", "X", "O"]]), "X wins");

ticTacToe([["X", "O", "X"], ["X", "O", "X"], ["O", "O", "X"]]) should return "O wins".

assert.equal(ticTacToe([["X", "O", "X"], ["X", "O", "X"], ["O", "O", "X"]]), "O wins");

ticTacToe([["X", "O", "X"], ["O", "X", "O"], ["O", "X", "O"]]) should return "Draw".

assert.equal(ticTacToe([["X", "O", "X"], ["O", "X", "O"], ["O", "X", "O"]]), "Draw");

ticTacToe([["X", "X", "O"], ["X", "O", "X"], ["O", "X", "X"]]) should return "O wins".

assert.equal(ticTacToe([["X", "X", "O"], ["X", "O", "X"], ["O", "X", "X"]]), "O wins");

ticTacToe([["X", "O", "O"], ["O", "X", "O"], ["O", "X", "X"]]) should return "X wins".

assert.equal(ticTacToe([["X", "O", "O"], ["O", "X", "O"], ["O", "X", "X"]]), "X wins");

ticTacToe([["O", "X", "X"], ["X", "O", "O"], ["X", "O", "X"]]) should return "Draw".

assert.equal(ticTacToe([["O", "X", "X"], ["X", "O", "O"], ["X", "O", "X"]]), "Draw");
