+- Added `DeepgramFluxSageMakerSTTService` for running Deepgram Flux speech-to-text on AWS SageMaker endpoints. Combines SageMaker's HTTP/2 transport with Flux's advanced turn detection protocol (StartOfTurn, EndOfTurn, EagerEndOfTurn, TurnResumed), enabling low-latency conversational AI without external VAD for turn boundaries. Use with `ExternalUserTurnStrategies`.

+
+    Requirements:
+
+    - AWS credentials configured (via environment variables, AWS CLI, or instance metadata)
+    - A deployed SageMaker endpoint with Deepgram Flux model
+
+    Event handlers available:
+
+    - on_connected: Called when the SageMaker session is established
+    - on_disconnected: Called when the session is closed
+    - on_connection_error: Called on connection failure
+    - on_start_of_turn: Deepgram Flux detected start of speech
+    - on_end_of_turn: Deepgram Flux detected end of turn
+    - on_eager_end_of_turn: Deepgram Flux predicted end of turn
+    - on_turn_resumed: User resumed speaking after EagerEndOfTurn
