Wild: karaoke from Whisper's own timings

Whisper doesn't just transcribe — with word timestamps on, it knows when each word is spoken. So transcribe a clip, hit play, and watch every word light up in time with the audio. No alignment tools, no manual subtitling — the karaoke is built straight from the model's output.
