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] ]
