Mark Backman 5b67dcd9e7 Remove deprecated EmulateUser{Started,Stopped}SpeakingFrame and emulated field
Remove EmulateUserStartedSpeakingFrame, EmulateUserStoppedSpeakingFrame
(deprecated since v0.0.99), and the emulated field from
UserStartedSpeakingFrame and UserStoppedSpeakingFrame. Clean up the
handling code in base_input.py and a stale comment in nova_sonic/llm.py.
