# Given a binary tree, return the tilt of the whole tree.
#
# The tilt of a tree node is defined as the absolute difference
# between the sum of all left subtree node values and
# the sum of all right subtree node values. Null node has tilt 0.
#
# The tilt of the whole tree is defined as the sum of all nodes' tilt.
#
# Example:
# Input:
#          1
#       /   \
#       2     3
# Output: 1
# Explanation:
# Tilt of node 2 : 0
# Tilt of node 3 : 0
# Tilt of node 1 : |2-3| = 1
# Tilt of binary tree : 0 + 0 + 1 = 1
# Note:
#
# The sum of node values in any subtree won't exceed
# the range of 32-bit integer.
