Copilot was unable to run its full agentic suite in this review.
This PR prevents crashes in the JSON-C json_walk path by validating the input json_object before iterating and by avoiding undefined reads from an uninitialized JSON_ENTRY.
Changes:
- Return early from
json_walkwhentis NULL or not a JSON object. - Zero-initialize
JSON_ENTRYbefore use.
