* match.c (match_files): Bugfix in skip directive.

We should try the match at least once even if there is no data
after a hard skip, so that the query has an opportunity
to do an explicit match for no data, as with @(endp).
This commit makes possible queries like:
@fourth_line_from_bottom
@(skip 1 3)
@(eof)
This query depends on @(skip 1 3) not failing when
it runs out of data, because @(eof) checks for htis.
