Keysat 95524f4983 v0.13.0:0 - revert WhisperX migration; back to Parakeet + Sortformer
After five hotfix iterations on the WhisperX install (v0.12.0:0–:4) we
never got a working docker build. The fundamental constraint isn't
patchable from outside NVIDIA: NGC PyTorch on ARM64 (the only base that
runs on Spark 2's GB10 Blackwell) ships a custom-versioned torch
2.10.0a0+b558c98 that has no pre-built torchaudio match anywhere.
WhisperX → pyannote → torchaudio is a hard dependency chain we couldn't
satisfy without rebuilding torchaudio against torch 2.10's alpha API.
Walking away cleanly is better than another night of chasing.

Removed from the codebase:
  - image/whisperx_container/* (Dockerfile + requirements + app/main.py)
  - image/app/whisperx_install.py (install manager + SSH ship-context logic)
  - image/Dockerfile COPY whisperx_container
  - WHISPERX_* config keys in config.py
  - whisperx service entry in services.py
  - WhisperX-preferred branch in audio_proxy.py
  - /api/whisperx/* endpoints in server.py
  - install banner + progress dialog in index.html
  - render + handlers in app.js
  - .whisperx-install styles in style.css

Spark 2 cleaned in tandem (user-authorized): container removed,
~/whisperx-build/ removed, 5.4 GB of dangling image layers + 1.3 GB of
builder cache reclaimed. parakeet-asr and magpie-tts unaffected and
healthy throughout.

The audio path is back to exactly what shipped in v0.11.0:3:
  POST /api/audio/transcribe-with-speakers
    → Parakeet (transcription) + Sortformer (diarization) in parallel
    → merged by timestamp into speaker-labeled blocks

v0.13.0:1+ will add the actually-needed fixes that the WhisperX detour
was meant to address:
  1. memory cap on the parakeet-asr container so a long-audio crash
     can't swap-thrash Spark 2 again
  2. a chunking proxy in /api/audio/transcribe-with-speakers that
     splits inputs >10 min before Sortformer

en_US:
'v0.13.0 — WhisperX migration reverted. Five hotfixes deep with no working build; the fundamental problem (NGC PyTorch on ARM64 ships a custom-versioned torch with no matching torchaudio anywhere) was always going to bite. All WhisperX install plumbing has been removed from spark-control: the install banner + progress dialog, the install endpoints, the audio-proxy WhisperX-preferred branch, the whisperx service registration, the WHISPERX_* env vars, and the build-context files. Spark 2 has been cleaned (container removed, build dir removed, ~6.8 GB of dangling layers + builder cache reclaimed). The dashboard now looks as it did before the migration attempt: Parakeet + Sortformer is the only audio path, unchanged. v0.13.0:1+ will add the actually-needed fixes: a memory cap on the parakeet container (so the 90-min audio crash can\'t take down Spark 2 again — worst case is a clean OOM-kill of the container), and a chunking proxy that splits long audio before sending to Sortformer.',
