549.Binary Tree Longest Consecutive Sequence II

Given a binary tree,you need to find the length of Longest Consecutive Path in Binary Tree.
Especially,this path can be either increasing or decreasing. For example,[1,2,3,4] and [4,1] are both considered valid,but the path [1,4,3] is not valid. On the other hand,the path can be in the child-Parent-child order,where not necessarily be parent-child order.
Example 1:?
Input:
        1
       /       2   3
Output: 2
Explanation: The longest consecutive path is [1,2] or [2,1].

Example 2:?
Input:
        2
       /       1   3
Output: 3
Explanation: The longest consecutive path is [1,3] or [3,1].
