Subject: [PATCH] Fix HelpCommand searching

Prevent index out of bounds exception when finding possible matches in
the help topics.
A general empty string is caught and directed to the defaultTopic by
getHelpTopic(). #findPossibleMatches hence should not concern itself
with possible empty strings anymore.
