Custom Wake Words

Let users define 1-2 custom wake words for Omi. Currently limited to a small preset list that doesn't include common AI assistant names.

My AI assistant is named "Sam." I'm working around the limitation with fuzzy phonetic matching on the webhook side (catching "sam", "psalm", "pam", "siri" as close-enough triggers), but this is fragile and catches false positives.

What I'd like:

- User-configurable wake words (even just 1-2 custom entries)

- Even a simple phonetic model would work — doesn't need to be perfect

- Makes Omi feel like YOUR device, not a generic one

This is a small feature with huge personalization impact. Everyone who builds a custom assistant on Omi (and there are clearly a lot of us based on this board) wants to call it by name.
