* Add component_cfg kwarg to begin_training
* Document component_cfg arg to begin_training
* Update docs and auto-format
* Support component_cfg across Language
* Format
* Update docs and docstrings [ci skip]
* Fix begin_training
* Make serialization methods consistent
exclude keyword argument instead of random named keyword arguments and deprecation handling
* Update docs and add section on serialization fields
* Use default return instead of else
* Add Doc.is_nered to indicate if entities have been set
* Add properties in Doc.to_json if they were set, not if they're available
This way, if a processed Doc exports "pos": None, it means that the tag was explicitly unset. If it exports "ents": [], it means that entity annotations are available but that this document doesn't contain any entities. Before, this would have been unclear and problematic for training.

## Description
This PR adds the abilility to override custom extension attributes during merging. This will only work for attributes that are writable, i.e. attributes registered with a default value like `default=False` or attribute that have both a getter *and* a setter implemented.
```python
Token.set_extension('is_musician', default=False)
doc = nlp("I like David Bowie.")
with doc.retokenize() as retokenizer:
attrs = {"LEMMA": "David Bowie", "_": {"is_musician": True}}
retokenizer.merge(doc[2:4], attrs=attrs)
assert doc[2].text == "David Bowie"
assert doc[2].lemma_ == "David Bowie"
assert doc[2]._.is_musician
```
