     * 如果链表是循环的，则找到循环的开始节点
     * 否则，返回null
     *
     * 依然使用双指针法，如果是循环链表的话，
     * slow和fast第一次相遇之后，将slow = head，
     * 然后将slow和fast每次移动一个节点，第二次相遇的时候就是循环的起始节点
     *
     * 原理：
     * 假设head到start的距离a，slow和fast第一次相遇的位置距离start为b，循环链表周长为c，第一次相遇的时候fast走过的长度一定是slow的两倍，在过程中遍历了循环链表n次
     * (a + b) * 2 = a + n * c + b
     * 那么a = n*c - b => a + b = n*c
     * 也就是说，现在让两个指针slow指向head，fast指向第一次相遇的位置，然后每次两个指针移动一个节点，直到下一次相遇，正好走过n个周长，即下一次相遇在start位置
     *
     * @param head
     * @return
