590. N-ary Tree Postorder Traversal

Given an n-ary tree, return the postorder traversal of its nodes' values.

Nary-Tree input serialization is represented in their level order traversal, each group of children is separated by the null value (See examples).

Follow up:

Recursive solution is trivial, could you do it iteratively?

Example 1:

Input: root = [1,null,3,2,4,null,5,6]
Output: [5,6,3,2,4,1]

Example 2:

Input: root = [1,null,2,3,4,5,null,null,6,7,null,8,null,9,10,null,null,11,null,12,null,13,null,null,14]
Output: [2,6,14,11,7,3,12,8,4,13,9,10,5,1]

Constraints:

• The height of the n-ary tree is less than or equal to 1000
• The total number of nodes is between [0, 10^4]

/*
// Definition for a Node.

    Node(int _val, vector<Node*> _children) {
        val = _val;
        children = _children;
