P65 - Layout a binary tree (2).

An alternative layout method is depicted in the illustration opposite. Find out the rules and write the corresponding method. Hint: On a given level, the horizontal distance between neighboring nodes is constant.

Use the same conventions as in problem P64.

> Node('a', Node('b', End, Node('c')), Node('d')).layoutBinaryTree2
  res0: PositionedNode[Char] = T[3,1]('a T[1,2]('b . T[2,3]('c . .)) T[5,2]('d . .))

The tree at right may be constructed with Tree.fromList(List('n','k','m','c','a','e','d','g','u','p','q')). Use it to check your code.
