feat: hot-reload voice models without server restart

Voice enabled/STT model are now DB-backed (admin settings), not env
vars. Added reload_stt_model()/reload_tts_model() that clear singletons
under lock and re-trigger loading. POST /api/admin/voice/reload triggers
both in background tasks. Settings UI polls /api/voice/status every 2.5s
until models are ready, with spinner feedback.
