# Time:  O(m * n), m is the number of nodes of s, n is the number of nodes of t
# Space: O(h), h is the height of s

# Given two non-empty binary trees s and t,
# check whether tree t has exactly the same structure and
# node values with a subtree of s.
# A subtree of s is a tree consists of a node in s and all of this node's descendants.
# The tree s could also be considered as a subtree of itself.
#
# Example 1:
# Given tree s:
#
#      3
#     / \
#   4   5
#   / \
#  1   2
# Given tree t:
#   4 
#   / \
#  1   2
# Return true, because t has the same structure and node values with a subtree of s.
# Example 2:
# Given tree s:
#
#      3
#     / \
#   4   5
#   / \
#  1   2
#     /
#   0
# Given tree t:
#   4
#   / \
#  1   2
# Return false.
