Remove links to espeak
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
- How to connect espeak to the browser's Web Speech API/SpeechSynthesis API is unclear.
- The espeak project seems to have been superseded by espeak-ng.
- The in-browser option using emscripten looks interesting, but requires work.
- Removing the implicit espeak recommendation by removing the links.
