-- | Let us call a binary tree symmetric if you can draw a vertical line through the root node
-- and then the right subtree is the mirror image of the left subtree.
-- Write a function 'symmetric' to check whether a given binary tree is symmetric.
-- We are only interested in the structure, not in the contents of the nodes.
--
-- === Examples
--
-- >>> symmetric (Branch 'x' (Branch 'x' Empty Empty) Empty)
-- False
--
-- >>> symmetric (Branch 'x' (Branch 'x' Empty Empty) (Branch 'x' Empty Empty))
-- True
--
-- === __Hint__
--
-- Write a function @mirror@ first to check whether one tree is the mirror image of another.
