Hyphens no longer allowed in job names when using the CLI

Issue

I just upgraded one of our Nomad clusters and I'm seeing issues with jobs that contain a hyphen, for example

~# nomad status channel-service
Error querying search with id: "Unexpected response code: 500 (alloc lookup failed: index error: Input (without hyphens) must be even length)"

This same command works in Nomad 0.6.0

@dsolsona use nomad job status channel-service instead

It seems like nomad status is now more general purpose (will guess the type of the status you're interested in) but is a bit too trigger-happy in thinking something is an UUID (I guess just looks for hyphens? :)).
