95. Unique Binary Search Trees II (Tree; DFS)

Given n, generate all structurally unique BST's (binary search trees) that store values 1...n.

For example,
Given n = 3, your program should return all 5 unique BST's shown below.

   1         3     3      2      1
           /     /      /       
     3     2     1      1   3      2
    /     /                        
   2     1         2                 3

思路：结果要保留树的所有节点，所以每次都new出新节点。

new新节点的顺序是从下往上（否则在遍历到子节点的时候，还得深度拷贝所有的父辈节点），所以要先访问左、右儿子，再访问根节点=>后序遍历。
