* Avoid `TrainablePipe.finish_update` getting called twice during training
PR #12136 fixed an issue where the tok2vec pipe was updated before
gradient were accumulated. However, it introduced a new bug that cause
`finish_update` to be called twice when using the training loop. This
causes a fairly large slowdown.
The `Language.update` method accepts the `sgd` argument for passing an
optimizer. This argument has three possible values:
- `Optimizer`: use the given optimizer to finish pipe updates.
- `None`: use a default optimizer to finish pipe updates.
- `False`: do not finish pipe updates.
However, the latter option was not documented and not valid with the
existing type of `sgd`. I assumed that this was a remnant of earlier
spaCy versions and removed handling of `False`.
However, with that change, we are passing `None` to `Language.update`.
As a result, we were calling `finish_update` in both `Language.update`
and in the training loop after all subbatches are processed.
This change restores proper handling/use of `False`. Moreover, the role
of `False` is now documented and added to the type to avoid future
accidents.
* Fix typo
* Document defaults for `Language.update`
* `Language.update`: ensure that tok2vec gets updated
The components in a pipeline can be updated independently. However,
tok2vec implementations are an exception to this, since they depend on
listeners for their gradients. The update method of a tok2vec
implementation computes the tok2vec forward and passes this along with a
backprop function to the listeners. This backprop function accumulates
gradients for all the listeners. There are two ways in which the
accumulated gradients can be used to update the tok2vec weights:
1. Call the `finish_update` method of tok2vec *after* the `update`
method is called on all of the pipes that use a tok2vec listener.
2. Pass an optimizer to the `update` method of tok2vec. In this
case, tok2vec will give the last listener a special backprop
function that calls `finish_update` on the tok2vec.
Unfortunately, `Language.update` did neither of these. Instead, it
immediately called `finish_update` on every pipe after `update`. As a
result, the tok2vec weights are updated when no gradients have been
accumulated from listeners yet. And the gradients of the listeners are
only used in the next call to `Language.update` (when `finish_update` is
called on tok2vec again).
This change fixes this issue by passing the optimizer to the `update`
method of trainable pipes, leading to use of the second strategy
outlined above.
The main updating loop in `Language.update` is also simplified by using
the `TrainableComponent` protocol consistently.
* Train loop: `sgd` is `Optional[Optimizer]`, do not pass false
* Language.update: call pipe finish_update after all pipe updates
This does correct and fast updates if multiple components update the
same parameters.
* Add comment why we moved `finish_update` to a separate loop
* change logging call for spacy.LookupsDataLoader.v1
* substitutions in language and _util
* various more substitutions

informed by the gold/silver data.

* Raise an error when multiprocessing is used on a GPU
As reported in #5507, a confusing exception is thrown when
multiprocessing is used with a GPU model and the `fork` multiprocessing
start method:
cupy.cuda.runtime.CUDARuntimeError: cudaErrorInitializationError: initialization error
This change checks whether one of the models uses the GPU when
multiprocessing is used. If so, raise a friendly error message.
Even though multiprocessing can work on a GPU with the `spawn` method,
it quickly runs the GPU out-of-memory on real-world data. Also,
multiprocessing on a single GPU typically does not provide large
performance gains.
* Move GPU multiprocessing check to Language.pipe
* Warn rather than error when using multiprocessing with GPU models
* Improve GPU multiprocessing warning message.

* Don't use the same vocab for source models
The source models should not be loaded with the vocab from the current
pipeline because this loads the vectors from the source model into the
current vocab.
The strings are all copied in `Language.create_pipe_from_source`, so if
the vectors are configured correctly in the current pipeline, the
sourced component will work as expected. If there is a vector mismatch,
a warning is shown. (It's not possible to inspect whether the vectors
are actually used by the component, so a warning is the best option.)
