* Enforce that Span.start/end(_char) remain valid and in sync
Allowing span attributes to be writable starting in v3 has made it
possible for the internal `Span.start/end/start_char/end_char` to get
out-of-sync or have invalid values.
This checks that the values are valid and syncs the token and char
offsets if any attributes are modified directly. It does not yet handle
the case where the underlying doc is modified.

* 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.
