IndexError with new trailing hyphen check
#64 introduced the following uncaught exception. Is this intended?

```python
>>> idna.ulabel('xn--')
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/Users/John/.pyenv/versions/3.6.5/Python.framework/Versions/3.6/lib/python3.6/site-packages/idna/core.py", line 303, in ulabel

IndexError: string index out of range
```

I would've expected `UnicodeError` or `IDNAError`, which are more descriptive.
