669\. Trim a Binary Search Tree

Medium

Given the `root` of a binary search tree and the lowest and highest boundaries as `low` and `high`, trim the tree so that all its elements lies in `[low, high]`. Trimming the tree should **not** change the relative structure of the elements that will remain in the tree (i.e., any node's descendant should remain a descendant). It can be proven that there is a **unique answer**.

Return _the root of the trimmed binary search tree_. Note that the root may change depending on the given bounds.

**Example 1:**

**Input:** root = [1,0,2], low = 1, high = 2

**Output:** [1,null,2]

**Example 2:**

![](https://assets.leetcode.com/uploads/2020/09/09/trim2.jpg)

**Input:** root = [3,0,4,null,2,null,null,1], low = 1, high = 3

**Output:** [3,2,null,1]

**Constraints:**

*   The number of nodes in the tree in the range [1, 10⁴].
*   0 <= Node.val <= 10⁴
*   The value of each node in the tree is **unique**.
*   `root` is guaranteed to be a valid binary search tree.
*   0 <= low <= high <= 10⁴
