Kaihui-AMD 2e466b765a Add AMD ROCm GPU support for faster_whisper backend
Add ROCm_whisper.md (Docker + native install guide) and docker/Dockerfile.rocm
based on rocm/pytorch:rocm7.2.4 (PyTorch 2.10.0) that installs the official
CTranslate2 v4.8.0 ROCm wheel. The default faster_whisper backend runs on AMD
GPUs out of the box with no code changes.

Tested on Radeon AI PRO R9700 (gfx1201) and Ryzen AI Max+ 395 / Radeon 8060S
(gfx1151) with ROCm 7.2.4.

Addresses #520.

# docker/Dockerfile.rocm
#
# WhisperLive faster_whisper backend on AMD ROCm GPUs.
# Uses the official CTranslate2 ROCm wheel (ships kernels for gfx803 through
# gfx1201 including Strix Halo gfx1151 and RDNA4 gfx1200/1201).
#
# Build:
# docker build -f docker/Dockerfile.rocm -t whisperlive-rocm .
#
# Run (expose the WebSocket port; add --enable_rest --rest_port 8000 -p 8000:8000 for REST):
# docker run --rm -it \
# --device=/dev/kfd --device=/dev/dri \
# --group-add "$(getent group video | cut -d: -f3)" \
# --group-add "$(getent group render | cut -d: -f3)" \
# -p 9090:9090 whisperlive-rocm
