[FEAT] Add Custom Whisper Models Addon
Is this a new feature request?
- [x] I have searched the existing issues
Wanted change
Add support for custom Whisper models (e.g., kb-whisper) via an environment variable like WHISPER_MODEL. This would allow users to specify and use non-English or specialized models.
Reason for change
Non-English languages often need larger or language-specific models for better accuracy.
Proposed code change

Tried to add 'KBLab/kb-whisper-medium' to environment 'WHISPER_MODEL' (docker, CPU only). It just worked. A comment in README.MD that other whisper models from Hugging Face can work.
