* Request to add Holmes to spaCy Universe
Dear spaCy team, I would be grateful if you would consider my Python library Holmes for inclusion in the spaCy Universe. Holmes transforms the syntactic structures delivered by spaCy into semantic structures that, together with various other techniques including ontological matching and word embeddings, serve as the basis for information extraction. Holmes supports several use cases including chatbot, structured search, topic matching and supervised document classification. I had the basic idea for Holmes around 15 years ago and now spaCy has made it possible to build an implementation that is stable and fast enough to actually be of use - thank you! At present Holmes supports English and German (I am based in Munich) but could easily be extended to support any other language with a spaCy model.

<!--- Provide a general summary of your changes in the title. -->
When using `spacy pretrain`, the model is saved only after every epoch. But each epoch can be very big since `pretrain` is used for language modeling tasks. So I added a `--save-every` option in the CLI to save after every `--save-every` batches.
## Description
<!--- Use this section to describe your changes. If your changes required
testing, include information about the testing environment and the tests you
ran. If your test fixes a bug reported in an issue, don't forget to include the
issue number. If your PR is still a work in progress, that's totally fine – just
include a note to let us know. -->
To test...
Save this file to `sample_sents.jsonl`
```
{"text": "hello there."}
{"text": "hello there."}
{"text": "hello there."}
{"text": "hello there."}
{"text": "hello there."}
{"text": "hello there."}
{"text": "hello there."}
{"text": "hello there."}
{"text": "hello there."}
{"text": "hello there."}
{"text": "hello there."}
{"text": "hello there."}
{"text": "hello there."}
{"text": "hello there."}
{"text": "hello there."}
{"text": "hello there."}
```
Then run `--save-every 2` when pretraining.
```bash
spacy pretrain sample_sents.jsonl en_core_web_md here -nw 1 -bs 1 -i 10 --save-every 2
```
And it should save the model to the `here/` folder after every 2 batches. The models that are saved during an epoch will have a `.temp` appended to the save name.
At the end the training, you should see these files (`ls here/`):
```bash
config.json model2.bin model5.bin model8.bin
log.jsonl model2.temp.bin model5.temp.bin model8.temp.bin
model0.bin model3.bin model6.bin model9.bin
model0.temp.bin model3.temp.bin model6.temp.bin model9.temp.bin
model1.bin model4.bin model7.bin
model1.temp.bin model4.temp.bin model7.temp.bin
```
### Types of change
<!-- What type of change does your PR cover? Is it a bug fix, an enhancement
or new feature, or a change to the documentation? -->
This is a new feature to `spacy pretrain`.
🌵 **Unfortunately, I haven't been able to test this because compiling from source is not working (cythonize error).**

* fix(util): fix decaying function output
* fix(util): better test and adhere to code standards
* fix(util): correct variable name, pytestify test, update website text
* Fix code for bag-of-words feature extraction
The _ml.py module had a redundant copy of a function to extract unigram
bag-of-words features, except one had a bug that set values to 0.
Another function allowed extraction of bigram features. Replace all three
with a new function that supports arbitrary ngram sizes and also allows
control of which attribute is used (e.g. ORTH, LOWER, etc).
* Support 'bow' architecture for TextCategorizer
This allows efficient ngram bag-of-words models, which are better when
the classifier needs to run quickly, especially when the texts are long.
Pass architecture="bow" to use it. The extra arguments ngram_size and
attr are also available, e.g. ngram_size=2 means unigram and bigram
features will be extracted.
* Fix size limits in train_textcat example
* Explain architectures better in docs
Add and document CLI options for batch size, max doc length, min doc length for `spacy pretrain`.
Also improve CLI output.
Closes#3216

* 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
* tidy up and adjust Cython code to code style
* improve docstrings and make calling `help()` nicer
* add URLs to new docs pages to docstrings wherever possible, mostly to user-facing objects
* fix various typos and inconsistencies in docs

* 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.

## 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
```

## Description
The new website is implemented using [Gatsby](https://www.gatsbyjs.org) with [Remark](https://github.com/remarkjs/remark) and [MDX](https://mdxjs.com/). This allows authoring content in **straightforward Markdown** without the usual limitations. Standard elements can be overwritten with powerful [React](http://reactjs.org/) components and wherever Markdown syntax isn't enough, JSX components can be used. Hopefully, this update will also make it much easier to contribute to the docs. Once this PR is merged, I'll implement auto-deployment via [Netlify](https://netlify.com) on a specific branch (to avoid building the website on every PR). There's a bunch of other cool stuff that the new setup will allow us to do – including writing front-end tests, service workers, offline support, implementing a search and so on.
This PR also includes various new docs pages and content.

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()

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
## Description
Fixes#2693
Previously, the tokens `sbd` and `sentencizer` would create the same nlp pipe. Internally, both would be called `sbd`. This setup became problematic because it was hard for a user relying on the `sentencizer` pipe name to realize that their pipe's name would be `sbd` for all functions other than creating a pipe. This PR intends to change the API and API documentation to fully support `sentencizer` and drop any user-facing references to `sbd`.
### Types of change
end-user API bug
