Description:
Given the root of a binary tree, check whether it is a mirror of itself (i.e., symmetric around its center).
Example:
| 12
 3
 4
 5
 6
 7
 8
 
 | Input: root = [1,2,2,3,4,4,3]1
 /     \
 2        2
 /   \    /   \
 3     4  4     3
 
 Output: true

 | Input: root = [1,2,2,null,3,null,3]1
 /     \
 2        2
 \        \
 3        3
 
 Output: false

ʕ •ᴥ•ʔ:Iterating的作法,有體會到要利用Stack當存檔點,但具體的while條件沒有想出來。
