Hermes Qwen3-TTS PCM streaming adapter

This optional Hermes backend plugin uses Athena's native /v1/audio/speech/pcm-stream route. It starts playback while Qwen3-TTS is still synthesizing the current sentence instead of waiting for a complete audio file.

Install this directory as ${HERMES_HOME}/plugins/qwen3-stream, enable the plugin and set:

tts:
  provider: qwen3-stream
  streaming:
    provider: qwen3-stream

The adapter reuses tts.openai.base_url, tts.openai.api_key, model, voice and language unless an explicit tts.qwen3-stream section overrides them. This avoids copying the Athena credential into another file.

Rollback is immediate: restore tts.provider and tts.streaming.provider to openai, disable the plugin and restart the Hermes gateway.
