Summary: Count distinct slotdef= pins for footprint size check.

Initial Comment:
Counts the number of distinct pinnumbers specified in
all slotdef= attributes.  Uses that number, plus the
number of net= pins, to compare with the "footprint
size" when checking for that warning.

The code used to simply use numpins*numslots, which
doesn't account for the possibility of the same
pinnumber being used in more than one slotdef= attribute.

For an example of a symbol where this matters, see
'analog/dual-opamp-1.sym'.

Other minor changes which fell out of the main change:

The slot number of the slotdef= attribute must now be
atoi()'d to a number > 0 or an error is reported 
Replaces testing for "0" (as a string) slot number.

Duplicate slotdef= slot numbers are reported as errors.
