<p>You are given the <code>root</code> of a binary tree and an integer <code>distance</code>. A pair of two different <strong>leaf</strong> nodes of a binary tree is said to be good if the length of <strong>the shortest path</strong> between them is less than or equal to <code>distance</code>.</p>

<p>Return <em>the number of good leaf node pairs</em> in the tree.</p>

<img alt="" src="https://assets.leetcode.com/uploads/2020/07/09/e1.jpg" style="width: 250px; height: 250px;" />
<pre>
<strong>Input:</strong> root = [1,2,3,null,4], distance = 3
<strong>Output:</strong> 1
<strong>Explanation:</strong> The leaf nodes of the tree are 3 and 4 and the length of the shortest path between them is 3. This is the only good pair.
</pre>

<p><strong class="example">Example 2:</strong></p>
<img alt="" src="https://assets.leetcode.com/uploads/2020/07/09/e2.jpg" style="width: 250px; height: 182px;" />
<pre>
<strong>Input:</strong> root = [1,2,3,4,5,6,7], distance = 3
<strong>Output:</strong> 2
<strong>Explanation:</strong> The good pairs are [4,5] and [6,7] with shortest path = 2. The pair [4,6] is not good because the length of ther shortest path between them is 4.
</pre>

<p><strong class="example">Example 3:</strong></p>

<pre>
<strong>Input:</strong> root = [7,1,4,6,null,5,3,null,null,null,null,null,2], distance = 3
<strong>Output:</strong> 1
<strong>Explanation:</strong> The only good pair is [2,5].
