# Given a binary tree, return all duplicate subtrees.
# For each kind of duplicate subtrees, you only need to return the root node of any one of them.
#
# Two trees are duplicate if they have the same structure with same node values.
#
# Example 1: 
#         1
#        / \
#       2   3
#      /   / \
#     4   2   4
#        /
#       4
# The following are two duplicate subtrees:
#       2
#      /
#     4
# and
#     4
# Therefore, you need to return above trees' root in the form of a list.

# Definition for a binary tree node.
