/**
 * 993. Cousins in Binary Tree
 * https://leetcode.com/problems/cousins-in-binary-tree/
 * Difficulty: Easy
 *
 * Given the root of a binary tree with unique values and the values of two different nodes of the
 * tree x and y, return true if the nodes corresponding to the values x and y in the tree are
 * cousins, or false otherwise.
 *
 * Two nodes of a binary tree are cousins if they have the same depth with different parents.
 *
 * Note that in a binary tree, the root node is at the depth 0, and children of each depth k node
 * are at the depth k + 1.
