akou 0.5.5

This build is not signed by Apple. The first time you open akou, macOS refuses it. On macOS 14, Control-click akou in Applications, choose Open, then Open again. On macOS 15 and later, open akou once, then go to System Settings, Privacy & Security, and click Open Anyway. After an update macOS may ask for the microphone and system audio again. The speech models are downloaded on first run. See docs/getting-started.md.
