NCDatasets should fail when trying to access a nonexisting index.

Hi:

When trying to read beyond the possible indices of a multifile dataset, NCDatasets doesn't fail, instead returns the array with some random data.

file2d = somelistoffiles
ds2d                = Dataset(file2d)
for (varname,var) in ds2d
    @show (varname,size(var))
end

returns: (varname, size(var)) = ("Prec", (512, 512, 2400))

If now I do

Prec = ds2d["Prec"].var[:,:,2500]

I get an array 512×512 Array{Float32,2} with some random information.

I would expect this to fail. Is that the expected behavior?

Thank you reporting this issue. It is now fixed in the master version. Bounding errors are now thrown the cases you mentioned.
