skill: Fix double-increment of pid_count.

Browse Source 
No need to "pid_count++;" because "ENLIST(pid," does it already. Right
now this can trigger a heap-based buffer overflow.

Also, remove the unneeded "pid_count = 0;" (it is static, and
skillsnice_parse() is called only once; and the other *_count variables
are not initialized explicitly either).
