+- Changed the default OpenAI Realtime input audio transcription model from `gpt-4o-transcribe` to `gpt-realtime-whisper` for both `OpenAIRealtimeSTTService` and `OpenAIRealtimeLLMService`. The new model does not accept the `prompt` parameter; if a prompt is supplied alongside `gpt-realtime-whisper`, it is dropped automatically and a warning is logged. To keep using prompt hints, explicitly pin `model="gpt-4o-transcribe"` (or `"gpt-4o-mini-transcribe"`).
