/**
 * 103. Binary Tree Zigzag Level Order Traversal
 *
Given a binary tree, return the zigzag level order traversal of its nodes' values.
 (ie, from left to right, then right to left for the next level and alternate between).

For example:
Given binary tree [3,9,20,null,null,15,7],
    3
   / \
  9  20
    /  \
   15   7
return its zigzag level order traversal as:
[
  [3],
  [20,9],
  [15,7]
]
