 * 86. Partition List
 *
 * Given a linked list and a value x, partition it such that all nodes less than x come before nodes greater than or equal to x.

 You should preserve the original relative order of the nodes in each of the two partitions.

 For example,
 Given 1->4->3->2->5->2 and x = 3,
 return 1->2->2->4->3->5.
