* fix(parakeet-cpp): darwin/metal support (libparakeet.dylib + DYLD path)
The parakeet-cpp backend had no macOS support and panicked at startup on
Apple/Metal nodes when purego.Dlopen could not find "libparakeet.so".
Fix it across the same four layers the sibling voxtral backend already
handles correctly:
- main.go: default the dlopen target to libparakeet.dylib on darwin
(runtime.GOOS), libparakeet.so elsewhere; PARAKEET_LIBRARY still wins.
- Makefile: also stage the built libparakeet.dylib next to the Go sources.
- package.sh: accept either the Linux .so[.X.Y] or the macOS .dylib when
bundling instead of hard-failing when no .so is present (the macOS case);
note that on Darwin only system frameworks are linked.
- run.sh: on Darwin set DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH and PARAKEET_LIBRARY to the
packaged .dylib; keep LD_LIBRARY_PATH + .so on Linux.
Mirrors backend/go/voxtral.

* fix(backends): darwin/metal support across purego Go backends
The parakeet-cpp fix in the previous commit was an instance of a bug
shared by nearly every purego/dlopen Go backend: the dlopen target was
hardcoded to a .so name and run.sh exported only LD_LIBRARY_PATH, so the
backend panicked at startup on macOS/Apple-Metal nodes (dyld needs the
.dylib name and DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH). voxtral was the only backend handling
this correctly.
Apply the same four-layer fix (mirroring backend/go/voxtral) to the
remaining affected backends:
whisper, sherpa-onnx, ced, stablediffusion-ggml, vibevoice-cpp,
qwen3-tts-cpp, omnivoice-cpp, crispasr, acestep-cpp, locate-anything-cpp,
depth-anything-cpp, rfdetr-cpp, sam3-cpp, localvqe
Per backend:
- main.go (sherpa-onnx: backend.go, two libraries): default the dlopen
target to the .dylib on darwin (runtime.GOOS), .so elsewhere; the
existing <BACKEND>_LIBRARY env override still wins.
- run.sh: on Darwin set DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH and point <BACKEND>_LIBRARY at
the packaged .dylib; keep LD_LIBRARY_PATH + the Linux CPU-variant
(avx/avx2/avx512) selection unchanged in the else branch.
- package.sh: also bundle the .dylib and stop hard-failing when no .so is
present (the macOS case).
- Makefile: also stage the built .dylib.
Notes:
- stablediffusion-ggml and acestep-cpp build their lib as a CMake MODULE,
which emits .so (not .dylib) on macOS; run.sh prefers .dylib and falls
back to .so so both layouts work.
- sherpa-onnx was already partly darwin-aware (Makefile/package.sh); only
run.sh and the two dlopen defaults needed fixing.
Linux behavior is unchanged. Verified gofmt-clean and
`CGO_ENABLED=0 go build` for every backend.

* chore(whisper): Use Purego and enable VAD
This replaces the Whisper CGO bindings with our own Purego based module
to make compilation easier.
In addition this allows VAD models to be loaded by Whisper. There is not
much benefit now except that the same backend can be used for VAD and
transcription. Depending on upstream we may also be able to use GPU for
VAD in the future, but presently it is disabled.
