* NVDA 2024.1 compatibility

* Changed the name to Sonata because we're planning to support additional TTS models besides Piper
* Support for using fast variants of the voices. These variants are more responsive since they use streaming synthesis
* Speedups across the board
* Use a single, statically linked, executable for the TTS server
* Updated libtashkeel to latest version
