c96b53093c feat(captions): adds locale settings
Adds two new flags to the settings file which change the way the locale
flag is used:

- forceLocale: (true/false) => If true, enforces the transcription
  language to be the locale content field and jumps the language
selector
  in audio modal.
- defaultSelectLocale: (true/false) => If true, the default selected
  value in the dropdown language selector in audio modal will be defined
  by the locale content field.

In any case, if the locale flag holds an invalid value, it defaults to
disabled.

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.
