Undo last action in a text editor

Many text editors allow users to navigate backward through changes and insert missing words when needed. Using ListIterator, you can move backward through a list of actions and insert corrections where necessary.

In this exercise, you will traverse a list of words in reverse, and if you find "error", you will insert correction before it, simulating an undo operation in a text editor.
