whisrs: stream phrases sooner and type slower for TUIs

Browse source 
Streaming dictation only emits a phrase after phrase_silence_ms of
silence; the 400ms default stalled long continuous speech until the
20s force-split, which read as "the text cuts off". 250ms emits at
short breathing pauses instead.

key_delay_ms was the 2ms default, which drops characters in busy
Node/Ink TUIs like the pi chat while they are streaming output;
10ms keeps dictation readable there.
