pop from empty list error when taxonomy label not complete

type:bug bug-sev:2|low

**Bug Description** If one of the taxonomies is not complete, for instance `…k_Eukaryota; p_Parabasalia; c_Hypotrichomonadea; o_Hypotrichomonadida; f_Hypotrichomonadidae; g_Trichomitus sp.` does not go all the way to species level, you get an uninformative `pop from empty list` error when you run `classify-sklearn`. **Comments** It would be better if there was an error message when training the classifier. **References** This issue was discovered [here](https://forum.qiime2.org/t/plugin-error-from-feature-classifier-pop-from-empty-list/1431/11).
