* Add simple morphologizer training example
* Remove subword_features from CharEmbed models

`spacy.HashCharEmbedBiLSTM.v1` since in these cases `subword_features`
is always `False`.
* Rename setting in morphologizer example

* add unit test
* import unicode_literals
* move code to _merge function
* only set vector if vocab has non-zero vectors
* Improve token head verification
Improve the verification for valid token heads when heads are set:
* in `Token.head`: heads come from the same document
* in `Doc.from_array()`: head indices are within the bounds of the
document
* Improve error message
* Sync Span __eq__ and __hash__
Use the same tuple for `__eq__` and `__hash__`, including all attributes
except `vector` and `vector_norm`.
* Update entity comparison in tests
Update `assert_docs_equal()` test util to compare `Span` properties for
ents rather than `Span` objects.
Modify flag settings so that `DEP` is not sufficient to set `is_parsed`
and only run `set_children_from_heads()` if `HEAD` is provided.
Then the combination `[SENT_START, DEP]` will set deps and not clobber
sent starts with a lot of one-word sentences.

* Restructure tag maps for MorphAnalysis changes
Prepare tag maps for upcoming MorphAnalysis changes that allow
arbritrary features.
* Use default tag map rather than duplicating for ca / uk / vi
* Import tag map into defaults for ga
* Modify tag maps so all morphological fields and features are strings
* Move features from `"Other"` to the top level
* Rewrite tuples as strings separated by `","`
* Rewrite morph symbols for fr lemmatizer as strings
* Export MorphAnalysis under spacy.tokens
* Modify morphology to support arbitrary features
Modify `Morphology` and `MorphAnalysis` so that arbitrary features are
supported.
* Modify `MorphAnalysisC` so that it can support arbitrary features and
multiple values per field. `MorphAnalysisC` is redesigned to contain:
* key: hash of UD FEATS string of morphological features
* array of `MorphFeatureC` structs that each contain a hash of `Field`
and `Field=Value` for a given morphological feature, which makes it
possible to:
* find features by field
* represent multiple values for a given field
* `get_field()` is renamed to `get_by_field()` and is no longer `nogil`.
Instead a new helper function `get_n_by_field()` is `nogil` and returns
`n` features by field.
* `MorphAnalysis.get()` returns all possible values for a field as a
list of individual features such as `["Tense=Pres", "Tense=Past"]`.
* `MorphAnalysis`'s `str()` and `repr()` are the UD FEATS string.
* `Morphology.feats_to_dict()` converts a UD FEATS string to a dict
where:
* Each field has one entry in the dict
* Multiple values remain separated by a separator in the value string
* `Token.morph_` returns the UD FEATS string and you can set
`Token.morph_` with a UD FEATS string or with a tag map dict.
* Modify get_by_field to use np.ndarray
Modify `get_by_field()` to use np.ndarray. Remove `max_results` from
`get_n_by_field()` and always iterate over all the fields.
* Rewrite without MorphFeatureC
* Add shortcut for existing feats strings as keys
Add shortcut for existing feats strings as keys in `Morphology.add()`.
* Check for '_' as empty analysis when adding morphs
* Extend helper converters in Morphology
Add and extend helper converters that convert and normalize between:
* UD FEATS strings (`"Case=dat,gen|Number=sing"`)
* per-field dict of feats (`{"Case": "dat,gen", "Number": "sing"}`)
* list of individual features (`["Case=dat", "Case=gen",
"Number=sing"]`)
All converters sort fields and values where applicable.
* expand serialization test for custom token attribute
* add failing test for issue 4849
* define ENT_ID as attr and use in doc serialization
* fix few typos
* Include Doc.cats in to_bytes()
* Include Doc.cats in DocBin serialization
* Add tests for serialization of cats
Test serialization of cats for Doc and DocBin.
Iterate over lr_edges until all heads are within the current sentence.
Instead of iterating over them for a fixed number of iterations, check
whether the sentence boundaries are correct for the heads and stop when
all are correct. Stop after a maximum of 10 iterations, providing a
warning in this case since the sentence boundaries may not be correct.

The previous commit added the old py file...
* Lookups work-in-progress
* Move from pyx back to py
* Add string based lookups, fix serialization
* Update tests, language/lemmatizer to work with string lookups
There are some outstanding issues here:
- a pickling-related test fails due to the bloom filter
- some custom lemmatizers (fr/nl at least) have issues
More generally, there's a question of how to deal with the case where
you have a string but want to use the lookup table. Currently the table
allows access by string or id, but that's getting pretty awkward.
* Change lemmatizer lookup method to pass (orth, string)
* Fix token lookup
* Fix French lookup
* Fix lt lemmatizer test
* Fix Dutch lemmatizer
* Fix lemmatizer lookup test
This was using a normal dict instead of a Table, so checks for the
string instead of an integer key failed.
* Make uk/nl/ru lemmatizer lookup methods consistent
The mentioned tokenizers all have their own implementation of the
`lookup` method, which accesses a `Lookups` table. The way that was
called in `token.pyx` was changed so this should be updated to have the
same arguments as `lookup` in `lemmatizer.py` (specificially (orth/id,
string)).
Prior to this change tests weren't failing, but there would probably be
issues with normal use of a model. More tests should proably be added.
Additionally, the language-specific `lookup` implementations seem like
they might not be needed, since they handle things like lower-casing
that aren't actually language specific.

Closes#2203. Closes#3268.
Lemmas set from outside the `Morphology` class were being overwritten. The result was especially confusing when deserialising, as it meant some lemmas could change when storing and retrieving a `Doc` object.
This PR applies two fixes:
1) When we go to set the lemma in the `Morphology` class, first check whether a lemma is already set. If so, don't overwrite.
2) When we load with `doc.from_array()`, take care to apply the `TAG` field first. This allows other fields to overwrite the `TAG` implied properties, if they're provided explicitly (e.g. the `LEMMA`).

## 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
```

This PR adds a test for an untested case of `Span.get_lca_matrix`, and fixes a bug for that scenario, which I introduced in [this PR](https://github.com/explosion/spaCy/pull/3089) (sorry!).
## Description
The previous implementation of get_lca_matrix was failing for the case `doc[j:k].get_lca_matrix()` where `j > 0`. A test has been added for this case and the bug has been fixed.

If doc.from_array() was called with say, only entity information, this
would cause doc.is_tagged to be set to False, even if tags were set.
This caused tags to be dropped from serialisation. The same was true for
doc.is_parsed.
Closes#3012.
Initially span.as_doc() was designed to return a view of the span's contents, as a Doc object. This was a nice idea, but it fails due to the token.idx property, which refers to the character offset within the string. In a span, the idx of the first token might not be 0. Because this data is different, we can't have a view --- it'll be inconsistent.
This patch changes span.as_doc() to instead return a copy. The docs are updated accordingly. Closes#1537
* Update test for span.as_doc()
* Make span.as_doc() return a copy. Closes#1537
* Document change to Span.as_doc()
The doc.retokenize() context manager wasn't resizing doc.tensor, leading to a mismatch between the number of tokens in the doc and the number of rows in the tensor. We fix this by deleting rows from the tensor. Merged spans are represented by the vector of their last token.

See #3028. The solution in this patch is pretty debateable.
What we do is give the TokenC struct a .norm field, by repurposing the previously idle .sense attribute. It's nice to repurpose a previous field because it means the TokenC doesn't change size, so even if someone's using the internals very deeply, nothing will break.
The weird thing here is that the TokenC and the LexemeC both have an attribute named NORM. This arguably assists in backwards compatibility. On the other hand, maybe it's really bad! We're changing the semantics of the attribute subtly, so maybe it's better if someone calling lex.norm gets a breakage, and instead is told to write lex.default_norm?
Overall I believe this patch makes the NORM feature work the way we sort of expected it to work. Certainly it's much more like how the docs describe it, and more in line with how we've been directing people to use the norm attribute. We'll also be able to use token.norm to do stuff like spelling correction, which is pretty cool.
