Adds a pre_transcription transform hook (prompt/language/model mutable,
file_path read-only, last-writer-wins per the transform_* convention)
fired before any STT backend, threads prompt to faster-whisper
(initial_prompt) and OpenAI/Groq/Mistral/DeepInfra (prompt), adds an
optional stt.prompt config key on the same plumbing, and keeps the
no-hook dispatch path byte-identical. Fixes#64168.
Documents the new surface for users: a "Transcription prompt
(vocabulary hints)" subsection in the configuration guide (composition
order, per-provider support matrix, length contract, privacy warning),
a pre_transcription entry in the hooks reference, and the mirrored row
in the plugins hook table.
