For some reason, some misconfigured servers return an empty document when queried over webfinger. Since an empty document does not lead to a parse error, the error is not caught properly and triggers uncaught exceptions later on. This PR fixes that by immediately erroring out with `Webfinger::Error` on getting an empty response.

Also, merging this PR would make #15605 even more useful. |
