Corpus builder: test NTLK in separate thread #151

Closed gkunter closed 8 years ago

When activating the NLTK checkbox, the builder tests if the required components can be loaded. During this test, the main thread is blocked, which will confuse the users.

Instead, the testing should be done in a separate thread so that the GUI isn't blocked, and a progress bar should be shown so that the users know that something is happening. While the test runs, the Build button should be disabled.

Fix Issue #152 and #151. Also provide direct download of NLTK components instead of using the NLTK downloader
