Subject: [PATCH] fix: API probe URLs, 5min timeout for slow engines like
 WhisperX (v2.03.03)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

- Add _api_base() to strip endpoint-specific path suffixes before probing
  /models, /metadata, /info — fixes /transcribe/models 404 spam when URL
  ends with a custom path like /v1/transcribe
- Increase default transcribe() timeout 60s → 300s — WhisperX with speaker
  diarization (pyannote) takes 2-5 min and was always timing out
