51eeb092b3 refactor(captions): configurable languages
Move the language collection to the HTML settings file. This data defines
the available languages available for the speech API.

These language tags are used to filter SpeechSynthesis' API `getVoices`
result. Tags must use BCP 47 format.

d00909751a refactor(captions): change getVoices routine
In some cases, `getVoices` returns an empty array even if the browser's vendor
has full support for speech synthesis. Add a trigger call to initiate the
voices fetching process.

As drafted, `getVoices` can be an asynchronous call and monitoring it
depends on the support of a `voiceschanged` event. Although many of the
main vendors support voices, this event is not (yet) by Safari.

5671bd7d3c fix(captions): check for voices
Avoid enable audio transcription if the browser's vendor does not provide
voices data.

This should prevent false positives for browsers such as Chromium and
Brave.

75969ec93c feat(captions): audio captions app
Add a server-side app for the audio captions feature and record proto-events
for this data.

As it is, only behaves as a pass-through module. The idea is to include all
the business intelligence in this app.
