REVERT: Switch back to 1B multilingual model for T4 GPU compatibility

Root cause analysis completed:
- 2.6B model (5.2GB) exceeded T4 GPU memory (15GB with inference overhead)
- Solution: Use 1B multilingual model optimized for English processing

Key Changes in v1.4.0:
- Dockerfile: Download 1B model (stt-1b-en_fr-candle) instead of 2.6B
- Model config: Revert to asr_v0_1_1b() with default 48000 vocab
- Multistream: Use default Config::v0_1() (text_start_token: 32000 < 48000 vocab)
- Python: Use config-stt-en_fr-hf.toml (multilingual but English-optimized)

This should resolve the GPU memory issue while maintaining proper vocab alignment:
- text_start_token: 32000 (from default config)
- model vocab_size: 48000 (from asr_v0_1_1b)
- 32000 < 48000 ✅ (valid token range)

The 1B model provides excellent English performance within T4 memory constraints.
