v1.37.0

Pill mic OSD style — a new, cleaner overlay style for the microphone visualization. Set mic_osd_style: "pill" (alongside the existing waveform and vu_meter), and the configured style is now correctly passed through to the OSD daemon. Thanks @wojciechsacewicz! (#207)
One-line bootstrap installer — non-Arch installs now have a first-class path: curl -fsSL https://hyprwhspr.com/install.sh | bash. The installer runs distro pre-flight checks, and uninstall fully covers bootstrap-managed clones.

Fixed a memory leak on audio-server restart (#209) — if PipeWire/PulseAudio restarted while a recording was in flight, the recording stream could be orphaned: its callback busy-looped against the dead device and grew the service without bound. Now if a wedged stream survives every reclamation attempt (it can outlive even a full PortAudio reset), the service restarts itself cleanly under systemd — back in ~2 seconds instead of burning a CPU core until the OOM killer steps in. Thanks to @michaelmaxbrownevidentia for the report.
If the transcription backend fails fast during init, the service now stays alive and retries via the record gate instead of dying.
Record-start gate checks are evaluated under the lock, eliminating is_recording flicker in status consumers.
keyboard, record, and test subcommands invoked through stale wrappers are redirected to the current CLI.
Uninstall is now driven from a single filesystem-target manifest, removes per-item compat symlinks, and notes shared model caches it leaves behind.
inject_mode and stream_start_retry_delay are registered in the config schema, so validation no longer flags them.
Fixed a FIFO-creation race (EEXIST) in recording-control setup.

Transient IPC/signal files moved to XDG_RUNTIME_DIR — recording status, control FIFO, audio level, and friends now live under $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/hyprwhspr/ instead of ~/.config/hyprwhspr/. Compatibility symlinks are kept for this release cycle; update waybar/tray scripts that read the old paths, as the symlinks may be removed in a future release.
