Currently we raise an exception if you pass a single-character string
consisting solely of an apostrophe to engine.plural(), e.g.:
>>> import inflect
>>> p = inflect.engine()
>>> p.plural("'")

Rather than raising an exception, just return the "'" string back to the
caller (since nothing needs to be done to pluralize it).
This is accomplished by modifying the "ends with apostrophe s" regex to
require that there is at least one character present preceding the
apostrophe (rather than "zero or more"), to ensure that the match group
isn't empty for the "'" string.
