Let admins hear a voice sample before picking it

The Speech section of every model settings form now has "Hear a
sample", which streams a short sentence (AppData.VoicePreviewText) in
the form's model and voice before they're saved, through
GET api/admin/harness/preview-voice (super admins and admins, that
model only via grabModelCandidate). pickVoice is shared with
speakText, and explainAudioError reads why a streamed player failed
for both read-aloud and the sample.
