%expect-rr: fix the computation of the overall number of conflicts

On a grammar such as

   exp: "num" | "num" | "num"

we currently report only one RR conflict, instead of two.

This bug is present since the origins of Bison

parse.error verbose" since Bison 3.0, but no warning was issued.
** Bug fixes
*** Incorrect number of reduce-reduce conflicts
On a grammar such as
exp: "num" | "num" | "num"
bison used report a single RR conflict, instead of two. This is now
fixed. This was the oldest (known) bug in Bison: it was there when Bison
was entered in the RCS version control system, in December 1987.
Some grammar files might have to adjust their %expect-rr.
