Two reported bugs:
1) Notifications still appeared during hands-free use while away. A wakeword
hit arriving while the previous clip was still transcribing went through
toggle(), which popped a "Busy" notification — the away-from-keyboard
notification storm. Wakeword triggers now call start_dictation(silent=True)
directly, so a busy/not-ready state is ignored silently. Transcription and
rewrite failures during a silent session are now logged instead of raising
critical desktop notifications.
2) "Wakeword did not work" with the log line "muted via /tmp/wake_muted": a
stale mute flag silently disabled detection. The tray "Pause wakeword"
toggle (already added) clears it; the daemon now also logs a clear
"Starting PAUSED" warning when it boots with the flag present.
Adds tests/test_daemon_notify.py covering silent-session suppression and the
busy-while-wakeword no-notify path.
