/**
* 979 - Distribute Coins in Binary Tree\.
*
* Medium
*
* You are given the `root` of a binary tree with `n` nodes where each `node` in the tree has `node.val` coins. There are `n` coins in total throughout the whole tree.
*
* In one move, we may choose two adjacent nodes and move one coin from one node to another. A move may be from parent to child, or from child to parent.
*
* Return _the **minimum** number of moves required to make every node have **exactly** one coin_.
*
* **Example 1:**
*
* ![](https://assets.leetcode.com/uploads/2019/01/18/tree1.png)
*
* **Input:** root = [3,0,0]
*
* **Output:** 2
*
* **Explanation:** From the root of the tree, we move one coin to its left child, and one coin to its right child.
*
* **Example 2:**
*
* ![](https://assets.leetcode.com/uploads/2019/01/18/tree2.png)
*
* **Input:** root = [0,3,0]
*
* **Output:** 3
*
* **Explanation:** From the left child of the root, we move two coins to the root [taking two moves]. Then, we move one coin from the root of the tree to the right child.
*
* **Constraints:**
*
* * The number of nodes in the tree is `n`.
* * `1 <= n <= 100`
* * `0 <= Node.val <= n`
* * The sum of all `Node.val` is `n`.
