Examples
a(5) = 4 because the compositions of 5 without 2's are 5, 41, 14, 311, 131, 113, and 11111 and the sum of their asymmetry degrees is 0+1+1+1+0+1+0=4.

Formula
G.f.: g(z) = 2*z^4*(1-z)/((1+z)*(1-2*z+z^2-z^3)^2). In the more general situation of compositions into a[1]=1} z^(a[j]), we have g(z) = (F(z)^2 - F(z^2))/((1+F(z))*(1-F(z))^2).
a(n) = Sum_{k >= 0} k*A275442(n,k).
