DeskMic a Rust based hyper-light continuous transcriber/AI summarizer

This nails the ugly, practical bits most toy projects skip: WASAPI loopback for Teams audio, a Silero VAD ring buffer to only save speech segments, and robust sleep/device-recovery with exponential backoff. It combines local whisper-rs transcription with optional Azure-based pipelines and scheduled ACS email summaries — a focused, pragmatic tool for people who actually need continuous meeting capture without sending everything to a SaaS.
