538. Convert BST to Greater Tree

Medium
Given the root of a Binary Search Tree (BST), convert it to a Greater Tree such that every key of the original BST is changed to the original key plus the sum of all keys greater than the original key in BST.
As a reminder, a binary search tree is a tree that satisfies these constraints:
  • The left subtree of a node contains only nodes with keys less than the node's key.
  • The right subtree of a node contains only nodes with keys greater than the node's key.
  • Both the left and right subtrees must also be binary search trees.
Example 1:
Input: root = [4,1,6,0,2,5,7,null,null,null,3,null,null,null,8]
Output: [30,36,21,36,35,26,15,null,null,null,33,null,null,null,8]
Example 2:
Input: root = [0,null,1]
Output: [1,null,1]
Constraints:
  • The number of nodes in the tree is in the range [0, 10^4].
  • -10^4 <= Node.val <= 10^4
  • All the values in the tree are unique.
  • root is guaranteed to be a valid binary search tree.
