Handle missing rawResponse in transcription messages (#2623)

* Handle missing rawResponse in transcription messages

- Use message.get('rawResponse', {}) to safely access rawResponse field
- Default is_final to False when rawResponse is missing
- Add proper type annotations for better code clarity
- Minor import formatting cleanup

This prevents KeyError crashes when transcription messages from Daily's API
don't include the rawResponse field in edge cases.

* docs: add changelog line
