StopIteration & RuntimeError fix for Python >= 3.7

[NicolasBizzozzero]

Since Python 3.7, all StopIteration exceptions raised inside a generator are transformed into RuntimeError (see PEP-0479 and this answer from StackOverflow). This new behavior made pattern unusable for all Python3.7+ users and all packages depending on it (gensim for instance: piskvorky/gensim#2438).

This PR fixes the _read generator by removing the StopIteration exception raised in it. It solves the following issues :

• StopIteration raised every time  #243
• Python 3.7 Issue #282
• RunTimeError #283
• Python 3.7 support issue #288
• lemmatize: StopIteration error in Python 3.7 piskvorky/gensim#2438

Thank you for all the work @NicolasBizzozzero !

Seems like the CI build is based on python=3.6 and causing the check failures? Who can help to fix this issue as it seems stupid to not able to fix this for quite a while...

Meanwhile you can monkey patch around this issue by calling this method in your module:

def patch_pattern():
    from pattern import text

    original_read = text._read

    @functools.wraps(original_read)
    def patched_read(*args, **kwargs):
        try:
            for r in original_read(*args, **kwargs):
                yield r
        except RuntimeError:
            pass

    text._read = patched_read
