Implement Phase 2: Real offline speech-to-text with whisper.cpp

- Add SwiftWhisper integration for real whisper.cpp support with Metal acceleration
- Implement complete WhisperCPPEngine with audio transcription and text normalization
- Build ModelManager with curated catalog, downloads, and Core ML encoder support
- Create preferences window with model management UI (download, select, delete)
- Add NSStatusItem menu bar with model status display
- Integrate STT pipeline: hotkey → audio capture → whisper transcription
- Add model setup alerts when no model is loaded
- Support offline operation with performance targets met (<4s for 10s audio)
- Store models in ~/Library/Application Support/MenuWhisper/Models/

Phase 2 TECHSPEC requirements fully implemented and tested.
