Patch for topic count issues with automated OCF forum messages

When using OCF in 4.2.2, messages that are automatically inserted into the forum by the system (messages that result from a "Feedback" or "Contact Us" block) increment the cached topic count for the forum they are inserted into by 2 instead of by 1, causing incorrect topic counts until the forum cache is regenerated.
