0xbyt4 b859dfab16 fix: address voice mode review feedback
1. Fully lazy imports: sounddevice, numpy, elevenlabs, edge_tts, and
   openai are never imported at module level. Each is imported only when
   the feature is explicitly activated, preventing crashes in headless
   environments (SSH, Docker, WSL, no PortAudio).

2. No core agent loop changes: streaming TTS path extracted from
   _interruptible_api_call() into separate _streaming_api_call() method.
   The original method is restored to its upstream form.

3. Configurable key binding: push-to-talk key changed from Ctrl+R
   (conflicts with readline reverse-search) to Ctrl+B by default.
   Configurable via voice.push_to_talk_key in config.yaml.

4. Environment detection: new detect_audio_environment() function checks
   for SSH, Docker, WSL, and missing audio devices before enabling voice
   mode. Auto-disables with clear warnings in incompatible environments.

5. Graceful degradation: every audio touchpoint (sd.play, sd.InputStream,
   sd.OutputStream) wrapped in try/except with ImportError/OSError
   handling. Failures produce warnings, not crashes.
