You are given a positive integer array nums. A subset of the array nums is square-free if the product of its elements is a square-free integer. A square-free integer is an integer that is not divisible by any perfect square other than 1. Return the number of square-free non-empty subsets of the array nums. Since the answer may be too large, return it modulo 10^9 + 7.

Complexity
Input: The input consists of an integer array nums where 1 <= nums.length <= 1000 and 1 <= nums[i] <= 30.
Example: For example, nums = [6, 7, 8].
Constraints:
• 1 <= nums.length <= 1000
• 1 <= nums[i] <= 30
Output: Return the number of square-free non-empty subsets of the array nums. The result must be returned modulo 10^9 + 7.
Example: For nums = [6, 7, 8], the output is 4.
Constraints:
• The result should be an integer.
Goal: The goal is to count the number of non-empty subsets of nums where the product of the elements is square-free.
Steps:
• 1. First, determine which numbers in nums have prime factorization with no square factors.
• 2. Use dynamic programming to explore all possible subsets, ensuring that the product of the elements is square-free at each step.
• 3. Track the valid square-free subsets and their counts.
Goal: The array length is at most 1000, and each number is between 1 and 30. The problem is solvable within these constraints using dynamic programming.
Steps:
• 1 <= nums.length <= 1000
• 1 <= nums[i] <= 30
Assumptions:
• The input array nums will always contain positive integers.
• Subsets should not be empty, and the result should be computed modulo 10^9 + 7.
Input: For nums = [6, 7, 8], the output is 4.
Explanation: We identify the square-free subsets, [6], [7], [6, 7], and [8]. The total count of square-free subsets is 4.
