sqaud_v2 dataset contains misalignment between the answer text and the context value at the answer index
State: closed
Labels: name: bug

## Describe the bug
The built in huggingface squad_v2 dataset that you can access via datasets.load_dataset contains mis-alignment between the answers['text'] and the characters in the context at the location specified by answers['answer_start'].

For example:
id = '56d1f453e7d4791d009025bd'
answers = {'text': ['Pure Land'], 'answer_start': [146]}
However the actual text in context at location 146 is 'ure Land,'
Which is an off-by-one error from the correct answer.

## Steps to reproduce the bug
```python
import datasets

def check_context_answer_alignment(example):
    for a_idx in range(len(example['answers']['text'])):
        # check raw dataset for answer consistency between context and answer
        answer_text = example['answers']['text'][a_idx]
        a_st_idx = example['answers']['answer_start'][a_idx]
        a_end_idx = a_st_idx + len(example['answers']['text'][a_idx])
        answer_text_from_context = example['context'][a_st_idx:a_end_idx]
        if answer_text != answer_text_from_context:
            #print(example['id'])
            return False
    return True

dataset = datasets.load_dataset('squad_v2', split='train', keep_in_memory=True)

start_len = len(dataset)
dataset = dataset.filter(check_context_answer_alignment,
                                num_proc=1,
                                keep_in_memory=True)
end_len = len(dataset)
print('{} instances contain mis-alignment between the answer text and answer index.'.format(start_len - end_len))
```

## Expected results
This code should result in 0 rows being filtered out from the dataset.

## Actual results
This filter command results in 258 rows being flagged as containing a discrepancy between the text contained within answers['text'] and the text in example['context'] at the answers['answer_start'] location.

This code will reproduce the problem and produce the following count:
"258 instances contain mis-alignment between the answer text and answer index."

## Environment info
Steps to rebuilt the Conda environment:
```
# create a virtual environment to stuff all these packages into
conda create -n round8 python=3.8 -y

# activate the virtual environment
conda activate round8

# install pytorch (best done through conda to handle cuda dependencies)
conda install pytorch torchvision torchtext cudatoolkit=11.1 -c pytorch-lts -c nvidia

pip install jsonpickle transformers datasets matplotlib
```

OS: Ubuntu 20.04
Python 3.8
