feat: add UDP audio transport with OCB-AES128 encryption

Add native UDP support for audio transport, which provides much lower
latency than tunneling audio over TCP. The implementation:

- Adds OCB-AES128 encryption (RFC 7253) for UDP audio packets, as
  required by the Mumble protocol.
- Implements the CryptSetup handler to receive encryption keys and
  nonces from the server.
- Opens a UDP socket to the server after TCP connection and starts
  reading encrypted audio once the CryptSetup is received.
- Modifies WriteAudio to try UDP first with automatic fallback to
  the existing TCP tunnel when UDP is unavailable or encryption
  is not set up.
- Adds UDP ping packets to keep NAT bindings alive.
- Cleans up the UDP connection on disconnect.

The OCB implementation is a self-contained pure-Go implementation
using only crypto/aes and crypto/cipher from the standard library.
