-ing forms are handled incorrectly in spaCy's English dependency parser model

[mikpanko]

I have noticed that -ing forms (see definitions here and here) are handled inconsistently and often incorrectly in spaCy's English dependency parser model. For example, gerunds and pure nouns are sometimes mislabeled with csubj instead of nsubj:

Clicking on the button relaxes him. --> nsubj (displaCy Dependency Visualizer)
Clicking on a button relaxes him. --> csubj (displaCy Dependency Visualizer)
Loud shouting is rude. --> csubj (displaCy Dependency Visualizer)

Is it possible to train the model better on -ing forms?

Merging this with #3052. We've now added a master thread for incorrect predictions and related reports – see the issue for more details.
