LeetCode: Count Complete Tree Nodes

## https://code.dennyzhang.com/count-complete-tree-nodes
## Basic Ideas: Cut the examine dataset into half
##              Check height of sub-tree and right-tree
##              For each divide-conquer, one half will be solved without recursive
##
##    Sample Data: 
##             1        
##           /   \
##          2     3
##         /
##        4
##
## Complexity: Time O(h*log(n)) = O(log(n)*log(n)). Space O(1). If include system stack, Space O(log(n))
