Palash Debnath 5cab8e0149 feat: rename the product to VoiceStudio (previously OmniVoice-Studio)

Renames what users see. The app, the installers, the window title, the
docs and all 21 locales now say VoiceStudio, with "(previously
OmniVoice-Studio)" noted near the title of each doc surface so people
recognise it.

Deliberately NOT renamed, because renaming any of them silently breaks
an existing install — there is no legacy-path fallback anywhere in this
codebase:

  - bundle identifier com.debpalash.omnivoice-studio (MSI UpgradeCode,
    macOS TCC grants, managed venv, WebView localStorage, the
    single-instance lock)
  - data directories OmniVoice / .omnivoice and omnivoice.db
  - the ~150 OMNIVOICE_* environment variables
  - the X-OmniVoice-* HTTP headers (a wire protocol)
  - the published Docker image paths
  - the OmniVoice ENGINE, which is a model name and not this product

tests/test_identity_paths_survive_the_rename.py pins every one of those
so a future well-meaning sweep cannot orphan a user's library.

Linux .deb users install a new package name and should apt remove
omnivoice-studio; that note is in the changelog.

VoiceStudio — License Notice

Abbreviation

AGPL-3.0-only

Notice

VoiceStudio is free and open-source software, licensed under the GNU Affero General Public License, Version 3 (AGPL-3.0). You are free to use, copy, modify, and redistribute it — and that includes commercial and internal business use: run the app, use its outputs commercially, sell the audio you produce with it, provide professional/client services with it, and deploy it within your organization.

Because this is the Affero GPL, one additional obligation applies: if you modify VoiceStudio and make that modified version available to others over a network, you must also offer those users the complete corresponding source code of your modified version under these same AGPL-3.0 terms. See the full text in LICENSE.

A commercial license is available for organizations that want to embed VoiceStudio in a closed-source or proprietary product or service without the AGPL-3.0 copyleft obligations. Pricing tiers are coming soon; for inquiries contact VoiceStudio@palash.dev.

(This Notice is a plain-language summary; the binding terms are the full GNU AGPL-3.0 text in LICENSE.)

Scope

These terms cover the VoiceStudio application — the Tauri desktop shell (frontend/src-tauri/), the React frontend (frontend/src/), the FastAPI backend (backend/), and supporting build / packaging scripts (scripts/, Dockerfile, docker-compose.yml, .github/).

The bundled omnivoice/ Python package — the underlying TTS model by Han Zhu — is separately licensed under Apache License 2.0 by its upstream authors and is not relicensed here. Apache License 2.0 is compatible with, and may be combined under, the GNU AGPL-3.0. See pyproject.toml.

Third-party dependencies retain their own licenses. See Cargo.lock, bun.lock, and uv.lock for the resolved set.

Reference

The full canonical text of the GNU Affero General Public License, Version 3 is reproduced verbatim in LICENSE. The authoritative copy lives at https://www.gnu.org/licenses/agpl-3.0.txt.

Why this notice is a separate file: LICENSE must contain the verbatim AGPL-3.0 text and nothing else, so GitHub's license detection (and the corporate license scanners that gate adoption) can identify it as AGPL-3.0-only rather than falling back to "Other" / NOASSERTION.
