Major Features and Improvements
* Add op for solving max-spanning-tree (MST) problems. The code here is intended for NLP applications, but attempts to remain agnostic to particular NLP tasks (such as dependency parsing).
* Add max_spanning_tree_gradient.
* Add support for 'preserve_unused_tokens' options in BertTokenizer.
Bug Fixes and Other Changes
* Documentation updates.
* Reorganize the BUILD file for keras layers.
* Update model server testing. The test script now generates a model that integrates into tf serving's testing infra.
* Remove unneeded heavy dependencies in regex_split library.
* Turn TF text's ConstrainedSequence implementations into standalone callable functions.
* Fix bug in ViterbiAnalysis computation triggered when not using transition_weights.
* Removing testing_utils run_tf_function which is enabled by default now.
* Update patch params to work with Bazel >=1.0.0
* Remove circular dependencies by removing submodule imports from ragged package.
* Prevent lack of ragged_ops.py being released in TF from breaking tf.Text
