Minimum python version?

Hello,

First, great project and good job!

I'm trying to use coreferee for French data. I tried the public example for French in your doc.
I got the following error when I'm running it with Python 3.8.13.

⚠ Unexpected error in Coreferee annotating document, skipping ....
⚠ <class 'TypeError'>
⚠ unsupported operand type(s) for |: 'dict' and 'dict'

  File "/home/jerome/miniconda3/envs/origami_conda/lib/python3.8/site-packages/coreferee/manager.py", line 144, in __call__
    self.annotator.annotate(doc)
  File "/home/jerome/miniconda3/envs/origami_conda/lib/python3.8/site-packages/coreferee/annotation.py", line 377, in annotate
    self.rules_analyzer.initialize(doc)

    new_reverse_entity_noun_dictionary = {

The error does not occur with Python 3.9.

Would it be possible to fix this problem? (the project I want to use it is still using 3.8...)

Best,
Jérôme

It just so happens you wrote this while I was packaging the new v1.4.0 release, which already fixed this bug. So it should be enough to update to the new version of Coreferee.
