<p>You are given <code>n</code> <strong>BST (binary search tree) root nodes</strong> for <code>n</code> separate BSTs stored in an array <code>trees</code> (<strong>0-indexed</strong>). Each BST in <code>trees</code> has <strong>at most 3 nodes</strong>, and no two roots have the same value. In one operation, you can:</p>
<ul>
<li>Select two <strong>distinct</strong> indices <code>i</code> and <code>j</code> such that the value stored at one of the <strong>leaves </strong>of <code>trees[i]</code> is equal to the <strong>root value</strong> of <code>trees[j]</code>.</li>
<li>Replace the leaf node in <code>trees[i]</code> with <code>trees[j]</code>.</li>
<li>Remove <code>trees[j]</code> from <code>trees</code>.</li>
</ul>
<p>Return<em> the <strong>root</strong> of the resulting BST if it is possible to form a valid BST after performing </em><code>n - 1</code><em> operations, or</em><em> </em><code>null</code> <i>if it is impossible to create a valid BST</i>.</p>
<p>A BST (binary search tree) is a binary tree where each node satisfies the following property:</p>
<ul>
<li>Every node in the node&#39;s left subtree has a value&nbsp;<strong>strictly less</strong>&nbsp;than the node&#39;s value.</li>
<li>Every node in the node&#39;s right subtree has a value&nbsp;<strong>strictly greater</strong>&nbsp;than the node&#39;s value.</li>
</ul>
<p>A leaf is a node that has no children.</p>

<pre>
<strong>Input:</strong> trees = [[2,1],[3,2,5],[5,4]]
<strong>Output:</strong> [3,2,5,1,null,4]
<strong>Explanation:</strong>
In the first operation, pick i=1 and j=0, and merge trees[0] into trees[1].
Delete trees[0], so trees = [[3,2,5,1],[5,4]].
<img alt="" src="https://assets.leetcode.com/uploads/2021/06/24/diagram.png" style="width: 450px; height: 181px;" />
In the second operation, pick i=0 and j=1, and merge trees[1] into trees[0].
Delete trees[1], so trees = [[3,2,5,1,null,4]].
<img alt="" src="https://assets.leetcode.com/uploads/2021/06/24/diagram-2.png" style="width: 220px; height: 165px;" />
The resulting tree, shown above, is a valid BST, so return its root.</pre>

<pre>
<strong>Input:</strong> trees = [[5,3,8],[3,2,6]]
<strong>Output:</strong> []
<strong>Explanation:</strong>
Pick i=0 and j=1 and merge trees[1] into trees[0].
Delete trees[1], so trees = [[5,3,8,2,6]].
<img alt="" src="https://assets.leetcode.com/uploads/2021/06/24/diagram-3.png" style="width: 240px; height: 196px;" />
The resulting tree is shown above. This is the only valid operation that can be performed, but the resulting tree is not a valid BST, so return null.
