python3Packages.phonemizer: init at 2.2.1

Motivation for this change

Part of @Mic92 and my plan to package Mozilla TTS.

This step includes phonemizer, a library to convert text to phonemes.

It supports multiple backends, like espeak and festival. Unfortunately we couldn't get the festival backend to work, so we didn't include it.

E           RuntimeError: Command "/nix/store/3jb8rhr9ls6lwmrsahnwcq4v53kv3aw3-festival-2.5.0/bin/festival -b /build/tmpyi73uuuh" returned exit status 255, output is:

E           -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
E           closing a file left open: /build/tmpyi73uuuh

According to https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=687822 we are likely missing two folders, voices and dict. But for us the festival integration is out of scope for now. The espeak backend works and it's what we are using.

to phonemes, II assume?

Yikes! Copied from https://github.com/bootphon/phonemizer.

They even talk about "phones" in the issues, I'm not qualified to doubt their description.

The name and the stated purpose kind of hint towards phonemes, but yeah, checking that they do not indeed produce different phones of the same phoneme under different conditions would be a lot of work, so we have to believe the upstream
