chelsealong b7bff6f2d7 fix(voice): catch short echoed fragments of longer multi-sentence TTS replies
is_tts_echo() compared the captured transcript against the *entire*
spoken text with a whole-string similarity ratio, which only scores high
when the two strings are close in length. But a playback-phase barge
capture is cut immediately when the trigger fires and only spans the
pre-roll buffer plus time-to-silence, so a genuine self-capture is
typically a short fragment of a longer reply, not a near-verbatim repeat
of the whole thing -- for any response longer than a clause, the
length-diluted ratio fell below threshold and the echo sailed through
ungated.

When the whole-string check misses, also slide a window sized to the
transcript's word count across the spoken text and compare against each
window, so a short fragment echoed from within a much longer
multi-sentence reply is still caught. Add regression tests for a short
fragment matched at the start and in the middle of a longer reply.
