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.

* Test on #2396: bug in Doc.get_lca_matrix()
* reimplementation of Doc.get_lca_matrix(), (closes#2396)
* reimplement Span.get_lca_matrix(), and call it from Doc.get_lca_matrix()
* tests Span.get_lca_matrix() as well as Doc.get_lca_matrix()
* implement _get_lca_matrix as a helper function in doc.pyx; call it from Doc.get_lca_matrix and Span.get_lca_matrix
* use memory view instead of np.ndarray in _get_lca_matrix (faster)
* fix bug when calling Span.get_lca_matrix; return lca matrix as np.array instead of memoryview
* cleaner conditional, add comment
* Fix error
ValueError: cannot resize an array that references or is referenced
by another array in this way. Use the resize function
* added spaCy Contributor Agreement
* 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
This patch takes a step towards #1487 by introducing the
doc.retokenize() context manager, to handle merging spans, and soon
splitting tokens.
The idea is to do merging and splitting like this:
with doc.retokenize() as retokenizer:
for start, end, label in matches:
retokenizer.merge(doc[start : end], attrs={'ent_type': label})
The retokenizer accumulates the merge requests, and applies them
together at the end of the block. This will allow retokenization to be
more efficient, and much less error prone.
A retokenizer.split() function will then be added, to handle splitting a
single token into multiple tokens. These methods take `Span` and `Token`
objects; if the user wants to go directly from offsets, they can append
to the .merges and .splits lists on the retokenizer.
The doc.merge() method's behaviour remains unchanged, so this patch
should be 100% backwards incompatible (modulo bugs). Internally,
doc.merge() fixes up the arguments (to handle the various deprecated styles),
opens the retokenizer, and makes the single merge.
We can later start making deprecation warnings on direct calls to doc.merge(),
to migrate people to use of the retokenize context manager.
