robustification around calling super.initialize() in annotators
---------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: UIMA-1874
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/UIMA-1874
             Project: UIMA
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Core Java Framework
            Reporter: Marshall Schor
            Assignee: Marshall Schor
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 2.3.1


add error messages to the standard base annotator classes that users extend, to 
cover the case where the user forgot to call super.initialize().  There are two 
fields that could be null if this super call isn't done.  Instead of throwing 
NPE when they're referenced byt he base class impl, give an informative error 
message.

Fix the cases in our code where super.initialize() isn't called, including in 
our documentation.
