- BenchRow gains a device field; Transcriber records its resolved device, so
local engines report CPU or GPU and remote engines show "remote". New Device
column in the results table.
- Accuracy is now case-sensitive by default (capitalisation counts) so an
all-lowercase transcript no longer scores 100%. Punctuation is still ignored.

New benchmark.py: word-error-rate accuracy + a run() that times each STT engine
on a reference clip. Settings gains a Benchmark tab: pick a .wav and a matching
.txt, run all STT engines, see Time + Accuracy per engine and a summary of the
fastest and most accurate. Add presets for each model you want compared.
Fix "Local engine selected but the model isn't loaded." on Test: a cached
_transcriber_for() loads the local model on demand (the daemon only preloads it
when a local engine is active). Tested: local small 2.17s/100% vs remote :8010.

Both STT and LLM engine editors gain a Name field (first field). Editing it
renames the engine and updates the dropdown on commit; Save persists it. Fixes
the inability to rename "New STT"/"New LLM" after Add.

- Local-Whisper Device + Compute type now live under the STT engine section
("Local engine — device & precision"), removed from the General tab. The
local engine's Model field shows the effective whisper size.
- LLM engines gain a Type field (local | cloud), mirroring STT, stored in config.

New logbuffer.py captures app messages (log()) and library logs (faster-whisper,
huggingface_hub) into a ring buffer, mirrored to stderr. Settings gains a Log
tab: monospace view, 1s refresh, auto-scroll, Copy, Clear — so model
download/load progress is visible instead of an opaque "Loading…". transcribe
and daemon now log via the buffer.

Replace the model combo with a ModelPicker: an editable field plus a ▾ button
that opens a popover with a SearchEntry on top and a scrollable, filtered list
of models (HuggingFace-style). Add a refresh icon next to each engine URL that
loads models from {url}/models on demand. Verified: 8010 -> 428 models, typing
"turbo" filters to the turbo variants. You can still type a custom model name.

Each key field (Start/Stop+paste/Stop+paste+Enter/Cancel, and the preset
Hotkey) gets a Set button that captures the next keypress and writes it in the
config format. Captures modifier-only chords (e.g. Ctrl+Win -> <ctrl>+<cmd>) by
accumulating pressed keys and finalising on first release; key events are
swallowed while binding so they don't leak into the UI. Tested: token mapping,
combo formatting, and the bind flow.

The engine Model field is now an editable combo with a type-to-search
EntryCompletion (substring match). When you enter a remote engine URL it fetches
the model list from {url}/models (OpenAI `data[].id` or Ollama `models[].name`)
and fills the dropdown; local STT offers the whisper sizes. stt.list_models
added; tested live (8010 -> 428 models, 28080 -> 18, 19001 -> 1). You can still
type a custom model name.

set_placeholder_text on the preset and engine entries (URL, model, API key env,
keywords, hotkey, temperature, language) so empty fields show light-grey
examples of what to enter.

New GTK settings with a dropdown+editor pattern across four tabs:
- Presets: select/add/delete prompt presets; edit name, keywords, hotkey, mode,
per-preset model/temperature, and a clearly-bordered prompt textfield.
- Engines: STT and LLM engine managers with green/red online-offline status
dots, add/edit/delete, active selector, and an STT record-and-benchmark Test.
- Input: input scheme + keys + quality-gate settings.
- General: microphone picker with a live sounddevice level meter, output,
language, notifications, launch-on-login toggle, and local-Whisper settings.
Adds audio.py (mic enumeration via pactl + LevelMeter) and autostart.py
(~/.config/autostart entry). Recorder + daemon honour the selected mic.
Requirements gain sounddevice + tomli-w.

Replace the tkinter panel with a GTK3 control panel (gtkui.py) + settings
dialog (gtksettings.py): rounded CSD window, gradient background, circular icon
avatars, hotkey pills, hover states, Ubuntu font. Runs on the GTK main loop,
unified with the AppIndicator tray (no tkinter event-loop pump). Status updates
marshalled via GLib.idle_add. Removes the old tkinter gui.py.
