Fix tokenization for Hungarian given new modified handling of prefixes
and suffixes.
* Match a wider range of URI schemes
spaCy v2.1 switched to the built-in re module, where v2.0 had been using
the third-party regex library. When the tokenizer was deserialized on
Python2.7, the `re.compile()` function was called with expressions that
featured escaped unicode codepoints that were not in Python2.7's unicode
database.
Problems occurred when we had a range between two of these unknown
codepoints, like this:
```
'[\\uAA77-\\uAA79]'
```
On Python2.7, the unknown codepoints are not unescaped correctly,
resulting in arbitrary out-of-range characters being matched by the
expression.
This problem does not occur if we instead have a range between two
unicode literals, rather than the escape sequences. To fix the bug, we
therefore add a new compat function that unescapes unicode sequences
using the `ast.literal_eval()` function. Care is taken to ensure we
do not also escape non-unicode sequences.
Closes#3356.

This patch improves tokenizer speed by about 10%, and reduces memory usage in the `Vocab` by removing a redundant index. The `vocab._by_orth` and `vocab._by_hash` indexed on different data in v1, but in v2 the orth and the hash are identical.
The patch also fixes an uninitialized variable in the tokenizer, the `has_special` flag. This checks whether a chunk we're tokenizing triggers a special-case rule. If it does, then we avoid caching within the chunk. This check led to incorrectly rejecting some chunks from the cache.
With the `en_core_web_md` model, we now tokenize the IMDB train data at 503,104k words per second. Prior to this patch, we had 465,764k words per second.
Before switching to the regex library and supporting more languages, we had 1.3m words per second for the tokenizer. In order to recover the missing speed, we need to:
* Fix the variable-length lookarounds in the suffix, infix and `token_match` rules
* Improve the performance of the `token_match` regex
* Switch back from the `regex` library to the `re` library.

* Add spacy.errors module
* Update deprecation and user warnings
* Replace errors and asserts with new error message system
* Remove redundant asserts
* Fix whitespace
* Add messages for print/util.prints statements
* Fix typo
* Fix typos
* Move CLI messages to spacy.cli._messages
* Add decorator to display error code with message
An implementation like this is nice because it only modifies the string when it's retrieved from the containing class – so we don't have to worry about manipulating tracebacks etc.
* Remove unused link in spacy.about
* Update errors for invalid pipeline components
* Improve error for unknown factories
* Add displaCy warnings
* Update formatting consistency
* Move error message to spacy.errors
* Update errors and check if doc returned by component is None
Previous Sputnik integration caused API change: Vocab, Tagger, etc
were loaded via a from_package classmethod, that required a
sputnik.Package instance. This forced users to first create a
sputnik.Sputnik() instance, in order to acquire a Package via
sp.pool().
Instead I've created a small file-system shim, util.Package, which
allows classes to have a .load() classmethod, that accepts either
util.Package objects, or strings. We can later gut the internals
of this and make it a proxy for Sputnik if we need more functionality
that should live in the Sputnik library.
Sputnik is now only used to download and install the data, in
spacy.en.download
