You are given an array of integers nums of length n.
The cost of an array is the value of its first element. For example, the cost of [1,2,3] is 1 while the cost of [3,4,1] is 3.
You need to divide nums into 3 disjoint contiguous subarrays.
Return the minimum possible sum of the cost of these subarrays.

Example 1:
\n\n\nInput: nums = [1,2,3,12]\nOutput: 6\nExplanation: The best possible way to form 3 subarrays is: [1], [2], and [3,12] at a total cost of 1 + 2 + 3 = 6.\nThe other possible ways to form 3 subarrays are:\n- [1], [2,3], and [12] at a total cost of 1 + 2 + 12 = 15.\n- [1,2], [3], and [12] at a total cost of 1 + 3 + 12 = 16.\n\n\n
Example 2:
\n\n\nInput: nums = [5,4,3]\nOutput: 12\nExplanation: The best possible way to form 3 subarrays is: [5], [4], and [3] at a total cost of 5 + 4 + 3 = 12.\nIt can be shown that 12 is the minimum cost achievable.\n\n\n
Example 3:
\n\n\nInput: nums = [10,3,1,1]\nOutput: 12\nExplanation: The best possible way to form 3 subarrays is: [10,3], [1], and [1] at a total cost of 10 + 1 + 1 = 12.\nIt can be shown that 12 is the minimum cost achievable.\n\n\n
