#4913: Future posts cause term count to increase

 Making a future post causes the term counts to increase for both tags and
 categories, which makes the displayed counts for either of these
 incorrect, when using wp_list_categories or similar functions with the
 "show_count" option.

 Correct behavior would be for counts to ignore future posts, since they
 have not been published yet. This would require the wp_update_term_count
 function to take post_status into account and would require the
 wp_publish_post to call wp_update_term_count as well (possibly through a
 post transition action or some such thing).
