we have
(gdb) p *path->attr->aspath
$1 = {refcnt = 3, segments = 0x0, json = 0x0, str = 0x55723d0b7470 "", str_len = 0, asnotation = ASNOTATION_PLAIN}
It looks like this aspath is empty, resulting in a size 0 and NULL pointer for path->attr->aspath->segments which leads to the SIGSEGV
fixe: return 0 when segments is null.
