Test suite clean up (#5781)

* step_through tests: skip instead of xfail

* test_empty_doc should be fixed with new Thinc version

* remove outdated test (there are other misaligned tests now)

* xfail reason

* fix test according to french exceptions

* clarified some skipped tests

* skip ukranian test instead of xfail

* skip instead of xfail

* skip + reason instead of xfail

* removed obsolete tests referring to removed "set_frozen" functionality

* fix test 999

* remove unused AlignmentError

* remove xfail where possible, skip otherwise

* increment thinc release for empty_doc test
