Count the number of segments in a string. A segment is a contiguous sequence of non-space characters. Return 0 for null input and 0 for an empty or whitespace-only string.

Examples:

Input: str = 'Hello, my name is John' Output: 5 Explanation: There are 5 segments separated by spaces Input: str = 'love' Output: 1 Explanation: A single word with no spaces is one segment Input: str = '' Output: 0 Explanation: Empty string has no segments
