Sum of Left Leaves
<p>Given the <code>root</code> of a binary tree, return <em>the sum of all left leaves.</em></p>

<p>A <strong>leaf</strong> is a node with no children. A <strong>left leaf</strong> is a leaf that is the left child of another node.</p>

<pre>
<strong>Input:</strong> root = [3,9,20,null,null,15,7]
<strong>Output:</strong> 24
<strong>Explanation:</strong> There are two left leaves in the binary tree, with values 9 and 15 respectively.
