230 - Kth Smallest Element in a BST.
Medium

Given the root of a binary search tree, and an integer k, return the k^th smallest value ( 1-indexed ) of all the values of the nodes in the tree.

Example 1:

Input: root = [3,1,4,null,2], k = 1

Output: 1

Example 2:

Input: root = [5,3,6,2,4,null,null,1], k = 3

Output: 3

Constraints:
- The number of nodes in the tree is n.
- 1 <= k <= n <= 10⁴
- 0 <= Node.val <= 10⁴
Follow up: If the BST is modified often (i.e., we can do insert and delete operations) and you need to find the kth smallest frequently, how would you optimize?
