amosblomqvist 2d3f0e0412 feat: dictation round 2 — deferred transcript, adaptive meter
Owner's second live test:

- DEFERRED transcript: finals accumulate in a buffer during the run and
  flush into the primary input once, when dictation ends (Stop →
  CloseStream → Deepgram's last finals → socket close → one joined
  append; the 3s safety net covers a missing close). Nothing textual
  renders while recording — the meter is the only live feedback. Live
  output may return as a toggleable setting at the settings milestone;
  deferred is the default behavior.
- ADAPTIVE meter: cell count derives from the measured strip width (4px
  pitch, 8-48 cells, ResizeObserver; cells drop their minimum width) so
  narrow rows beside the knowledge-context slider fit — verified in the
  dev shell: draft 20 cells/83px, chat 48 cells/273px, no overlap.

/**
* Voice dictation — the cloud engine (STT wave 1, 2026-09-17).
*
* Architecture (docs/research/stt.md): the renderer captures mic audio in
* an AudioWorklet (public/worklets/pcm-capture.js → linear16 16kHz mono),
* opens the Deepgram streaming WebSocket DIRECTLY (audio never loops
* through our server) with a short-lived token minted by /api/stt/token
* (the real key stays server-side), and streams frames while it listens.
* Finals append into the PRIMARY INPUT (see below).
*
* Ported patterns from the owner's pi `dictate` extension (his words:
* "very well tuned") — see ~/.pi/agent/extensions/dictate:
* - generation counter: every start/stop increments it; all async
* handlers no-op when stale, so a dying session's socket can never
* tear down the current one.
* - meter: latest-RMS-never-resets — the level ref keeps the last
* observed value, so a tick with no fresh audio re-renders the last
* level instead of dropping to silence (60ms tick samples the ref).
* - dB mapping floor −50 / ceiling −10: the sweet spot for showing
* conversational speech as mid-height bars without pegging.
* - stop: mic dies FIRST (no more audio enqueues), then CloseStream,
* then a 3s safety net in case Deepgram never closes the socket.
* - interim_results=false, endpointing=300: his live-tuned params — no
* partial hypotheses, finals commit ~300ms after a pause (owner
* round 1: live words are distracting and shift the meter; the
* meter's width is FIXED while recording).
*
* Owner round 2 (2026-09-17, second live test):
* - DEFERRED transcript: finals accumulate in a buffer during the run
* and flush into the primary input ONCE, when the dictation ends
* (click-again/Esc → Deepgram flushes its last finals → socket close
* → one joined append). Nothing textual renders while recording —
* only the meter. Live output may return as a toggleable setting at
* the settings milestone; deferred is the only behavior for now.
* - ADAPTIVE meter: the strip's cell count derives from its measured
* width (4px pitch, 8–48 cells, ResizeObserver) so narrow rows (draft/
* home, where the knowledge-context slider eats the middle) show
* fewer bars instead of overflowing under their neighbors.
*
* Owner round 1 (2026-09-17, first live mic test):
* - ONE primary transcription input at all times: the pending
* quiz/ask question's field while one waits (text mode → the answer
* field, select modes → "Your thinking"), else the page's composer.
* Implemented as a module-level registry the question form claims on
* mount — see useDictationTarget below.
* - Click → meter IMMEDIATELY (optimistic): the meter strip renders
* from the click, connection + TCC happen behind it. The token mint
* and the mic acquisition run CONCURRENTLY (Promise.all) to shrink
* the real gap.
*
* Meter rendering lives in <DictationBar> (own 60ms timer over the level
* ref) so the 16-renders/sec never touch the page component — only the
* tiny bar strip repaints.
