## 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
```

ID is stored as the last entry in the pattern. We were checking for this

* Make retokenizer.split() tests use a Token object
Change retokenizer.split() to use a Token object, instead of an index.

* Add custom MatchPatternError
* Improve validators and add validation option to Matcher
* Adjust formatting
* Never validate in Matcher within PhraseMatcher
If we do decide to make validate default to True, the PhraseMatcher's Matcher shouldn't ever validate. Here, we create the patterns automatically anyways (and it's currently unclear whether the validation has performance impacts at a very large scale).
In most cases, the PhraseMatcher will match on the verbatim token text or as of v2.1, sometimes the lowercase text. This means that we only need a tokenized Doc, without any other attributes.
If phrase patterns are created by processing large terminology lists with the full `nlp` object, this easily can make things a lot slower, because all components will be applied, even if we don't actually need the attributes they set (like part-of-speech tags, dependency labels).
The warning message also includes a suggestion to use nlp.make_doc or nlp.tokenizer.pipe for even faster processing. For now, the validation has to be enabled explicitly by setting validate=True.

* Update matcher engine for regex and extensions
Add support for matching over arbitrary Python predicate functions, and
arbitrary Python attribute getters. This will allow matching over regex
patterns, and allow supporting extension attributes.
The results of the Python predicate functions are cached, so that we don't
call the same predicate function twice for the same token. The extension
attributes are fetched into an array for each token in the doc. This
should minimise the performance impact of the new features.
We still need to wire up these features to the patterns, and test it
all.

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.
* Add test for resizing doc.tensor when merging

* Deduplicate matches from Matcher
* Update matcher ? quantifier test
* Fix bug with ? quantifier in Matcher
The ? quantifier indicates a token may occur zero or one times. If the
token pattern fit, the matcher would fail to consider valid matches
where the token pattern did not fit. Consider a simple regex like:
.?b
If we have the string 'b', the .? part will fit --- but then the 'b' in
the pattern will not fit, leaving us with no match. The same bug left us
with too few matches in some cases. For instance, consider:
.?.?
If we have a string of length two, like 'ab', we actually have three
possible matches here: [a, b, ab]. We were only recovering 'ab'. This
should now be fixed. Note that the fix also uncovered another bug, where
we weren't deduplicating the matches. There are actually two ways we
might match 'a' and two ways we might match 'b': as the second token of the pattern,
or as the first token of the pattern. This ambiguity is spurious, so we
need to deduplicate.
Closes#2464 and #3009

* Remove check for overwritten factory
This needs to be handled differently – on first initialization, a new factory will be added and any subsequent initializations will trigger this warning, even if it's a new entry point that doesn't overwrite a built-in.

Useful for loading languages via entry points, so that they can be lazy-loaded. Otherwise, all entry point languages would have to be loaded upfront.

The output weights often return negative scores for classes, especially
via the bias terms. This means that when we add a new class, we can't
rely on just zeroing the weights, or we'll end up with positive
predictions for those labels.
To solve this, we use nan values as the initial weights for new labels.
This prevents them from ever coming out on top. During backprop, we
replace the nan values with the minimum assigned score, so that we're
still able to learn these classes.
After creating a component, the `.model` attribute is left with the value `True`, to indicate it should be created later during `from_disk()`, `from_bytes()` or `begin_training()`. This had led to confusing errors if you try to use the component without initializing the model.
To fix this, we add a method `require_model()` to the `Pipe` base class. The `require_model()` method needs to be called at the start of the `.predict()` and `.update()` methods of the components. It raises a `ValueError` if the model is not initialized. An error message has been added to `spacy.errors`.

I have added alpha support for the Tagalog language from the Philippines. It is the basis for the country's national language Filipino. I have heavily based the format to the EN and ES languages.
I have provided several words in the lemmatizer lookup table, added stop words from a source, translated numeric words to its Tagalog counterpart, added some tokenizer exceptions, and kept the tag map the same as the English language.
While the alpha language passed the preliminary testing that you provided, I think it needs more data to be useful for most cases.

The new spacy pretrain command implemented BERT/ULMFit/etc-like transfer learning, using our Language Modelling with Approximate Outputs version of BERT's cloze task. Pretraining is convenient, but in some ways it's a bit of a strange solution. All we're doing is initialising the weights. At the same time, we're putting a lot of work into our optimisation so that it's less sensitive to initial conditions, and more likely to find good optima. I discuss this a bit in the pseudo-rehearsal blog post: https://explosion.ai/blog/pseudo-rehearsal-catastrophic-forgetting
Support semi-supervised learning in spacy train
One obvious way to improve these pretraining methods is to do multi-task learning, instead of just transfer learning. This has been shown to work very well: https://arxiv.org/pdf/1809.08370.pdf . This patch makes it easy to do this sort of thing.
Add a new argument to spacy train, --raw-text. This takes a jsonl file with unlabelled data that can be used in arbitrary ways to do semi-supervised learning.
Add a new method to the Language class and to pipeline components, .rehearse(). This is like .update(), but doesn't expect GoldParse objects. It takes a batch of Doc objects, and performs an update on some semi-supervised objective.
Move the BERT-LMAO objective out from spacy/cli/pretrain.py into spacy/_ml.py, so we can create a new pipeline component, ClozeMultitask. This can be specified as a parser or NER multitask in the spacy train command. Example usage:
python -m spacy train en ./tmp ~/data/en-core-web/train/nw.json ~/data/en-core-web/dev/nw.json --pipeline parser --raw-textt ~/data/unlabelled/reddit-100k.jsonl --vectors en_vectors_web_lg --parser-multitasks cloze
Implement rehearsal methods for pipeline components
The new --raw-text argument and nlp.rehearse() method also gives us a good place to implement the the idea in the pseudo-rehearsal blog post in the parser. This works as follows:
Add a new nlp.resume_training() method. This allocates copies of pre-trained models in the pipeline, setting things up for the rehearsal updates. It also returns an optimizer object. This also greatly reduces confusion around the nlp.begin_training() method, which randomises the weights, making it not suitable for adding new labels or otherwise fine-tuning a pre-trained model.
Implement rehearsal updates on the Parser class, making it available for the dependency parser and NER. During rehearsal, the initial model is used to supervise the model being trained. The current model is asked to match the predictions of the initial model on some data. This minimises catastrophic forgetting, by keeping the model's predictions close to the original. See the blog post for details.
Implement rehearsal updates for tagger
Implement rehearsal updates for text categoriz
Currently the TextCategorizer defaults to a fairly complicated model, designed partly around the active learning requirements of Prodigy. The model's a bit slow, and not very GPU-friendly.
This patch implements a straightforward CNN model that still performs pretty well. The replacement model also makes it easy to use the LMAO pretraining, since most of the parameters are in the CNN.
The replacement model has a flag to specify whether labels are mutually exclusive, which defaults to True. This has been a common problem with the text classifier. We'll also now be able to support adding labels to pretrained models again.
Resolves#2934, #2756, #1798, #1748.
