* Only set NORM on Token in retokenizer
Instead of setting `NORM` on both the token and lexeme, set `NORM` only
on the token.
The retokenizer tries to set all possible attributes with
`Token/Lexeme.set_struct_attr` so that it doesn't have to enumerate
which attributes are available for each. `NORM` is the only attribute
that's stored on both and for most cases it doesn't make sense to set
the global norms based on a individual retokenization. For lexeme-only
attributes like `IS_STOP` there's no way to avoid the global side
effects, but I think that `NORM` would be better only on the token.
* Fix test
* Modify retokenizer to use span root attributes
* tag/pos/morph are set to root tag/pos/morph
* lemma and norm are reset and end up as orth (not ideal, but better
than orth of first token)
* Also handle individual merge case
* Add test
* Attempt to handle ent_iob and ent_type in merges
* Fix check for whether B-ENT should become I-ENT
* Move IOB consistency check to after attrs
Move all IOB consistency checks after attrs are set and simplify to
check entire document, modifying I to B at the beginning of the document
or if the entity type of the previous token isn't the same.
* Move IOB consistency check for single merge
Move IOB consistency check after the token array is compressed for the
single merge case.
* Update spacy/tokens/_retokenize.pyx

* Remove single vs. multiple merge distinction
Remove original single-instance `_merge()` and use `_bulk_merge()` (now
renamed `_merge()`) for all merges.
* Add out-of-bound check in previous entity check

## 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
```
