Transcripted v0.2.0: aurora default, branding stripped

Shipped a clean update to Transcripted. Two UI changes and a build fix:

Aurora is now the default (and only) recording UI. The old pill recording view existed as a fallback behind a settings toggle. Nobody used it. Removed the toggle, removed the fallback — aurora is just how recording looks now. One less setting, one less code path.

Stripped the branding from the idle pill. The floating pill used to show a coral logo and “Transcripted” text between the mic and transcripts buttons. It was too much for a 44px-tall element. Now it’s just the two buttons with breathing room. Cleaner.

Performance check while testing: recorded an 11-minute call, full pipeline completed in 5.4 seconds. That’s Parakeet TDT V3 (transcription) + Sortformer (diarization) + Qwen 3.5-4B (speaker name inference) — all local, all on-device. ~91x real-time on M5. Qwen correctly identified the speaker from conversation context in 1.9 seconds.

Net diff: 8 lines added, 88 removed. Green bar because shipping less code that does the same thing is always a win.
