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
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
```

* 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.

* 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

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.

See #3028. The solution in this patch is pretty debateable.
What we do is give the TokenC struct a .norm field, by repurposing the previously idle .sense attribute. It's nice to repurpose a previous field because it means the TokenC doesn't change size, so even if someone's using the internals very deeply, nothing will break.
The weird thing here is that the TokenC and the LexemeC both have an attribute named NORM. This arguably assists in backwards compatibility. On the other hand, maybe it's really bad! We're changing the semantics of the attribute subtly, so maybe it's better if someone calling lex.norm gets a breakage, and instead is told to write lex.default_norm?
Overall I believe this patch makes the NORM feature work the way we sort of expected it to work. Certainly it's much more like how the docs describe it, and more in line with how we've been directing people to use the norm attribute. We'll also be able to use token.norm to do stuff like spelling correction, which is pretty cool.
Fix a bug in the JSON streaming code that GoldCorpus uses. Escaped
slashes were being handled incorrectly. This bug caused low scores for
French in the early v2.1.0 alphas, because most of the data was not
being read in.
Fittingly, the document that triggered the bug was a Wikipedia article about
Perl. Parsing perl remains difficult!

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

## 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`.

* 💫 Refactor CLI (#2943)
To be merged into #2932.
## Description
- [x] refactor CLI To use [`wasabi`](https://github.com/ines/wasabi)
- [x] use [`black`](https://github.com/ambv/black) for auto-formatting
- [x] add `flake8` config
- [x] move all messy UD-related scripts to `cli.ud`
- [x] make converters function that take the opened file and return the converted data (instead of having them handle the IO)

## Description
- [x] Use [`black`](https://github.com/ambv/black) to auto-format all `.py` files.
- [x] Update flake8 config to exclude very large files (lemmatization tables etc.)
- [x] Update code to be compatible with flake8 rules
- [x] Fix various small bugs, inconsistencies and messy stuff in the language data
- [x] Update docs to explain new code style (`black`, `flake8`, when to use `# fmt: off` and `# fmt: on` and what `# noqa` means)
Once #2932 is merged, which auto-formats and tidies up the CLI, we'll be able to run `flake8 spacy` actually get meaningful results.
At the moment, the code style and linting isn't applied automatically, but I'm hoping that the new [GitHub Actions](https://github.com/features/actions) will let us auto-format pull requests and post comments with relevant linting information.

<!--- Provide a general summary of your changes in the title. -->
## Description
Update the training examples in `/examples/training` to show usage of spaCy's `minibatch` and `compounding` helpers ([see here](https://spacy.io/usage/training#tips-batch-size) for details). The lack of batching in the examples has caused some confusion in the past, especially for beginners who would copy-paste the examples, update them with large training sets and experienced slow and unsatisfying results.

* raise error when setting overlapping entities as doc.ents (#2880)
* Fix out-of-bounds access in NER training
The helper method state.B(1) gets the index of the first token of the
buffer, or -1 if no such token exists. Normally this is safe because we
pass this to functions like state.safe_get(), which returns an empty
token. Here we used it directly as an array index, which is not okay!
This error may have been the cause of out-of-bounds access errors during
training. Similar errors may still be around, so much be hunted down.
Hunting this one down took a long time...I printed out values across
training runs and diffed, looking for points of divergence between
runs, when no randomness should be allowed.

Fixes#2976
* Fix typo
* Fix typo

Fixes bug in gpu_ops that would use cupy instead of numpy on CPU
* Add missing import
* Fix error IDs
* Fix tests
These experiments were completed a few weeks ago, but I didn't make the PR, pending model release.
Token vector width: 128->96
Hidden width: 128->64
Embed size: 5000->2000
Dropout: 0.2->0.1
Updated optimizer defaults (unclear how important?)
This should improve speed, model size and load time, while keeping
similar or slightly better accuracy.
The tl;dr is we prefer to prevent over-fitting by reducing model size,
rather than using more dropout.
* Auto-format tests with black
* Add flake8 config
* Tidy up and remove unused imports
* Fix redefinitions of test functions
* Replace orths_and_spaces with words and spaces
* Fix compatibility with pytest 4.0
* xfail test for now
Test was previously overwritten by following test due to naming conflict, so failure wasn't reported
* Unfail passing test
* Only use fixture via arguments
Fixes pytest 4.0 compatibility
Our epic matrix multiplication odyssey is drawing to a close...
I've now finally got the Blis linear algebra routines in a self-contained Python package, with wheels for Windows, Linux and OSX. The only missing platform at the moment is Windows Python 2.7. The result is at https://github.com/explosion/cython-blis
Thinc v7.0.0 will make the change to Blis. I've put a Thinc v7.0.0.dev0 up on PyPi so that we can test these changes with the CI, and even get them out to spacy-nightly, before Thinc v7.0.0 is released. This PR also updates the other dependencies to be in line with the current versions master is using. I've also resolved the msgpack deprecation problems, and gotten spaCy and Thinc up to date with the latest Cython.
The point of switching to Blis is to have control of how our matrix multiplications are executed across platforms. When we were using numpy for this, a different library would be used on pip and conda, OSX would use Accelerate, etc. This would open up different bugs and performance problems, especially when multi-threading was introduced.
With the change to Blis, we now strictly single-thread the matrix multiplications. This will make it much easier to use multiprocessing to parallelise the runtime, since we won't have nested parallelism problems to deal with.
* Use blis
* Use -2 arg to Cython
* Update dependencies
* Fix requirements
* Update setup dependencies
* Fix requirement typo
* Fix msgpack errors
* Remove Python27 test from Appveyor, until Blis works there
* Auto-format setup.py
* Fix murmurhash version
