depends ... - my understanding of the logic for extracting the
"to-be-validated" AS is something alike:

  If aggregator is present and right-most AS segment type is AS-Set,
  then use aggregator AS for validating,
  else if if right-most AS segment type is AS-set -> result: not found
  else use right-most AS for validating
