Same Trees Check

/**
 * Given 2 binary trees.
 * This code checks whether they are the same (structurally identical and have the same values) or
 * not. <p> Example:
 * 1. Binary trees:
 *      1                 1
 *     / \               / \
 *    2   3             2   3
 *   /\   /\           /\   /\
 *  4  5 6  7         4  5 6  7
 * These trees are the same, so the code returns 'true'.
 * <p>
 * 2. Binary trees:
 *      1   1
 *     /     \
 *    2       2
 * These trees are NOT the same (the structure differs), so the code returns 'false'.
 * <p>
 * This solution implements the breadth-first search (BFS) algorithm.
 * For each tree we create a queue and iterate the trees using these queues.
 * On each step we check the nodes for equality, and if the nodes are not the same, return false.
 * Otherwise, add children nodes to the queues and continue traversing the trees.
 * <p>
 * Complexities:
 * O(N) - time, where N is the number of nodes in a binary tree,
 * O(N) - space, where N is the number of nodes in a binary tree.
