Description
The textcat components expect all category values to be either 1 or 0 if present. When this expectation is not met the errors generated are surprising and don't make the issue clear, like in #11757.
This change checks sample data during initialization and throws an error if invalid values are found. That's not perfect, since it might not catch things if only a few examples have bad values, but in the typical case it should prevent confusion by quickly identifying the issue.
