Bumps thinc from 8.3.6 to 9.1.1.

Release notes

Sourced from thinc's releases.

v9.1.1: Restore wheels for MacOS ARM 64

Previously we used a complicated build process that used self-hosted runners to build wheels for platforms Github Actions did not support. Github Actions has been adding support for ARM recently, so we've simplified the CI process to rely only on it exclusively.

This release adds back support for MacOS ARM64 wheels that were missing from the previous release. Linux ARM wheels are still pending, as Linux ARM architectures are currently only supported for private repos. Cross-compilation with QEMU is possible in theory, but in practice the build timed out after several hours.

v9.0.0: better learning rate schedules, integration of thinc-apple-ops

The main new feature of Thinc v9 is the support for learning rate schedules that can take the training dynamics into account. For example, the new plateau.v1 schedule scales the learning rate when no progress has been found after a given number of evaluation steps. Another visible change is that AppleOps is now part of Thinc, so it is not necessary anymore to install thinc-apple-ops to use the AMX units on Apple Silicon.

✨ New features and improvements

• Learning rate schedules can now take the training step as well as an arbitrary set of keyword arguments. This makes it possible to pass information such a the parameter name and last evaluation score to determine the learning rate (#804).
• Added the plateau.v1 schedule (#842). This schedule scales the learning rate if training was found to be stagnant for a given period.
• The functionality of thinc-apple-ops is integrated into Thinc (#927). Starting with this version of Thinc, it is not necessary anymore to install thinc-apple-ops.

🔴 Bug fixes

• Fix the use of thread-local storage (#917).

⚠️ Backwards incompatibilities

• Thinc v9.0.0 only support Python 3.9 and later.
• Schedules are not generators anymore, but implementations of the Schedule class (#804).
• thinc.backends.linalg has been removed (#742). The same functionality is provided by implementations in BLAS that are better tested and more performant.
• thinc.extra.search has been removed (#743). The beam search functionality in this module was strongly coupled to the spaCy transition parser and has therefore moved to spaCy in v4.
