1675\. Minimize Deviation in Array
Hard
You are given an array `nums` of `n` positive integers.
You can perform two types of operations on any element of the array any number of times:
* If the element is **even**, **divide** it by `2`.
* For example, if the array is `[1,2,3,4]`, then you can do this operation on the last element, and the array will be `[1,2,3,2].`
* If the element is **odd**, **multiply** it by `2`.
* For example, if the array is `[1,2,3,4]`, then you can do this operation on the first element, and the array will be `[2,2,3,4].`
The **deviation** of the array is the **maximum difference** between any two elements in the array.
Return _the **minimum deviation** the array can have after performing some number of operations._
**Example 1:**
**Input:** nums = [1,2,3,4]
**Output:** 1
**Explanation:** You can transform the array to [1,2,3,2], then to [2,2,3,2], then the deviation will be 3 - 2 = 1.
**Example 2:**
**Input:** nums = [4,1,5,20,3]
**Output:** 3
**Explanation:** You can transform the array after two operations to [4,2,5,5,3], then the deviation will be 5 - 2 = 3.
**Example 3:**
**Input:** nums = [2,10,8]
**Output:** 3
**Constraints:**
* `n == nums.length`
* 2 <= n <= 105
* 1 <= nums[i] <= 109
