* Prevent subtok label if not learning tokens
The parser introduces the subtok label to mark tokens that should be
merged during post-processing. Previously this happened even if we did
not have the --learn-tokens flag set. This patch passes the config
through to the parser, to prevent the problem.
* Make merge_subtokens a parser post-process if learn_subtokens
* Fix train script
* Add test for 3830: subtok problem
* Fix handlign of non-subtok in parser training
* Improve error message when model.from_bytes() dies
When Thinc's model.from_bytes() is called with a mismatched model, often
we get a particularly ungraceful error,
e.g. "AttributeError: FunctionLayer has no attribute G"
This is because we're trying to load the parameters for something like
a LayerNorm layer, and the model architecture has some other layer there
instead. This is obviously terrible, especially since the error *type*
is wrong.
I've changed it to raise a ValueError. The error message is still
probably a bit terse, but it's hard to be sure exactly what's gone
wrong.

v2.1 introduced a regression when deserializing the parser after
parser.add_label() had been called. The code around the class mapping is
pretty confusing currently, as it was written to accommodate backwards
model compatibility. It needs to be revised when the models are next
retrained.
Closes#3433
* Make serialization methods consistent
exclude keyword argument instead of random named keyword arguments and deprecation handling
* Update docs and add section on serialization fields
* Improve handling of missing NER tags
GoldParse can accept missing NER tags, if entities is provided
in BILUO format (rather than as spans). Missing tags can be provided
as None values.
Fix bug that occurred when first tag was a None value. Closes#2603.
* Document specification of missing NER tags.
The output weights often return negative scores for classes, especially
via the bias terms. This means that when we add a new class, we can't
rely on just zeroing the weights, or we'll end up with positive
predictions for those labels.
To solve this, we use nan values as the initial weights for new labels.
This prevents them from ever coming out on top. During backprop, we
replace the nan values with the minimum assigned score, so that we're
still able to learn these classes.
After creating a component, the `.model` attribute is left with the value `True`, to indicate it should be created later during `from_disk()`, `from_bytes()` or `begin_training()`. This had led to confusing errors if you try to use the component without initializing the model.
To fix this, we add a method `require_model()` to the `Pipe` base class. The `require_model()` method needs to be called at the start of the `.predict()` and `.update()` methods of the components. It raises a `ValueError` if the model is not initialized. An error message has been added to `spacy.errors`.
The new spacy pretrain command implemented BERT/ULMFit/etc-like transfer learning, using our Language Modelling with Approximate Outputs version of BERT's cloze task. Pretraining is convenient, but in some ways it's a bit of a strange solution. All we're doing is initialising the weights. At the same time, we're putting a lot of work into our optimisation so that it's less sensitive to initial conditions, and more likely to find good optima. I discuss this a bit in the pseudo-rehearsal blog post: https://explosion.ai/blog/pseudo-rehearsal-catastrophic-forgetting
Support semi-supervised learning in spacy train
One obvious way to improve these pretraining methods is to do multi-task learning, instead of just transfer learning. This has been shown to work very well: https://arxiv.org/pdf/1809.08370.pdf . This patch makes it easy to do this sort of thing.
Add a new argument to spacy train, --raw-text. This takes a jsonl file with unlabelled data that can be used in arbitrary ways to do semi-supervised learning.
Add a new method to the Language class and to pipeline components, .rehearse(). This is like .update(), but doesn't expect GoldParse objects. It takes a batch of Doc objects, and performs an update on some semi-supervised objective.
Move the BERT-LMAO objective out from spacy/cli/pretrain.py into spacy/_ml.py, so we can create a new pipeline component, ClozeMultitask. This can be specified as a parser or NER multitask in the spacy train command. Example usage:
python -m spacy train en ./tmp ~/data/en-core-web/train/nw.json ~/data/en-core-web/dev/nw.json --pipeline parser --raw-textt ~/data/unlabelled/reddit-100k.jsonl --vectors en_vectors_web_lg --parser-multitasks cloze
Implement rehearsal methods for pipeline components
The new --raw-text argument and nlp.rehearse() method also gives us a good place to implement the the idea in the pseudo-rehearsal blog post in the parser. This works as follows:
Add a new nlp.resume_training() method. This allocates copies of pre-trained models in the pipeline, setting things up for the rehearsal updates. It also returns an optimizer object. This also greatly reduces confusion around the nlp.begin_training() method, which randomises the weights, making it not suitable for adding new labels or otherwise fine-tuning a pre-trained model.
Implement rehearsal updates on the Parser class, making it available for the dependency parser and NER. During rehearsal, the initial model is used to supervise the model being trained. The current model is asked to match the predictions of the initial model on some data. This minimises catastrophic forgetting, by keeping the model's predictions close to the original. See the blog post for details.

Remove hacks and wrappers, keep code in sync across our libraries and move spaCy a few steps closer to only depending on packages with binary wheels 🎉
See here: https://github.com/explosion/srsly
Serialization is hard, especially across Python versions and multiple platforms. After dealing with many subtle bugs over the years (encodings, locales, large files) our libraries like spaCy and Prodigy have steadily grown a number of utility functions to wrap the multiple serialization formats we need to support (especially json, msgpack and pickle). These wrapping functions ended up duplicated across our codebases, so we wanted to put them in one place.
At the same time, we noticed that having a lot of small dependencies was making maintainence harder, and making installation slower. To solve this, we've made srsly standalone, by including the component packages directly within it. This way we can provide all the serialization utilities we need in a single binary wheel.
srsly currently includes forks of the following packages:
ujson
msgpack
msgpack-numpy
cloudpickle
* WIP: replace json/ujson with srsly
* Replace ujson in examples
Use regular json instead of srsly to make code easier to read and follow
* Update requirements
* Fix imports
* Fix typos
* Replace msgpack with srsly
* Fix warning
