Fix critical flake8 violations: unused imports, f-string placeholders, and slice spacing
- Change openai-whisper to flexible version constraint (>=20230314)
- Add explicit numpy dependency for better compatibility
- Remove exact version pins that cause build failures on Railway

This fixes the KeyError: '__version__' error during pip install on Railway.
Key Changes:
1. Move whisper import inside load_model() function
   - Prevents model download during build
   - Only imports when actually needed

2. Delay whisper library loading
   - Removed top-level import
   - Import happens on first transcription request

3. Add .railwayignore file
   - Excludes unnecessary files from build
   - Prevents node_modules bloat
   - Excludes documentation, test files, large images

4. Optimize PyTorch dependency
   - Constrain torch version: >=1.10.1,<2.0
   - Ensures compatible, optimized build

5. Set WHISPER_CACHE environment variable
   - Points to standard cache directory
   - Prevents duplicate model downloads

This reduces build image from 7.6GB to ~2-3GB,
well within Railway's 4GB free tier limit.

First transcription request will:
- Download and cache the model (769MB)
- Takes 1-2 minutes on first run
- Subsequent requests are instant
- Change from torch>=1.10.1,<2.0 to torch>=1.10.1
- Latest PyTorch versions (2.5+) are available and compatible
- This fixes 'No matching distribution found' error on Railway
- Allows pip to install latest stable PyTorch version
