Transcription-only and sound-detection-only realtime sessions passed a
chain config straight to the model loader. It has no backend, so the
loader fell back to greedy backend auto-detection: slow, and ending in
an unhelpful error. Sound-only sessions are a main use of chains.
The stage routing of the full pipeline moves into a stageRouter that
both realtime model kinds embed. Every stage resolves to the chain's
active target at build time and goes through the failover plan per
call. The session sends failover events for any model with chain
stages, and restarts them when a transcription session.update swaps
the model.
