Merge pull request #4393 from pipecat-ai/mb/fix-smart-turn-import

fix(turns): defer LocalSmartTurnAnalyzerV3 import to fix transformers warning

changelog/4393.fixed.md

@@ -0,0 +1 @@
+- Fixed an issue where `LocalSmartTurnAnalyzerV3` was imported unconditionally for user turn stop strategies. It is now only imported when `default_user_turn_stop_strategies()` is called. This improves startup time and removes the `transformers` "PyTorch/TensorFlow/Flax not found" warning when the default stop strategies are not used.
