Major version bump reflecting the architecture change from PySide6/Qt
to Tauri v2 + Svelte 5 with cross-platform support for Windows,
macOS, and Linux.
Key changes since v1.4.0:
- Tauri v2 native desktop shell replacing PySide6/Qt
- Svelte 5 reactive frontend
- Headless Python backend as a downloadable sidecar
- Deepgram cloud transcription (managed + BYOK)
- Gitea CI/CD with per-OS builds and automated releases
- Sidecar auto-update checking on startup
- 63-test suite (Python + Svelte + Rust)

The bundled .ico had non-RGBA PNGs which caused Tauri's macOS bundler
to fail with "The PNG is not in RGBA format!". Regenerated all icons
from the source PNG as proper RGBA, and added icon.icns for macOS.
Also fixed bundle identifier from "com.localtranscription.app" (the
.app suffix conflicts with macOS bundle extension) to
"net.anhonesthost.local-transcription".

Scaffold the cross-platform rewrite from PySide6/Qt to Tauri + Svelte,
following the same architecture as voice-to-notes. The Python backend
runs headless as a sidecar, with a FastAPI control API that the Svelte
frontend connects to via REST and WebSocket.
New files:
- backend/app_controller.py: Headless orchestration (extracted from MainWindow)
- backend/api_server.py: FastAPI control endpoints + /ws/control WebSocket
- backend/main_headless.py: Headless entry point for sidecar mode
- src-tauri/: Tauri v2 Rust shell with sidecar and dialog plugins
- src/: Svelte 5 frontend (App, Settings, Controls, TranscriptionDisplay)
- src/lib/stores/: Reactive stores for backend connection, config, transcriptions
