// Kahn's algorithm computes a topological ordering of a directed acyclic graph (DAG).
// `n` is the number of vertices,
// `dependencies` is a list of directed edges, where each pair [a, b] represents
// a directed edge from a to b (i.e. b depends on a).
// Vertices are assumed to be labelled 0, 1, ..., n-1.
// If the graph is not a DAG, the function returns nil.
