audio_state taps the microphone and the speaker monitor with parec and publishes
levels, a speaking/listening/quiet activity, and trigger-locked waveform windows;
audio itself stays out of ROS. The activity detector calibrates its noise floor
at start-up and absorbs steady noise, so a room at -43 dBFS does not read as
"listening" forever, and it ignores the mic while the robot speaks.
The face arbitrates the state it shows: sleeping (agent side only, so room sound
never wakes a face that means "no agent connected") > speaking > listening >
thinking > idle, and draws the mouth from the real samples while fresh scope data
exists, auto-scaled so a quiet voice is still visible.
Checked: a tone played to the sink shows as `speaking` with the mic ignored. The
microphone-to-mouth path with a live voice is not yet confirmed.
