/**
 * This code recursively validates whether given Binary Search Tree (BST) is balanced or not.
 * Trees with only distinct values are supported.
 * Key points:
 * 1. According to the definition of a BST, each node in a tree must be in range [min, max],
 *    where 'min' and 'max' values represent the child nodes (left, right).
 * 2. The smallest possible node value is Integer.MIN_VALUE, the biggest - Integer.MAX_VALUE.
