fix: accept trigger-only voice wake test

 ### Fixes
 
 - Gateway/sessions: move hot transcript reads and mirror appends onto async bounded IO with serialized parent-linked writes, keeping large session histories from stalling Gateway requests and channel replies. Fixes #75656. Thanks @DerFlash.
+- macOS/Voice Wake: accept trigger-only phrases in the built-in Voice Wake test, matching the settings UI and runtime trigger-only path instead of requiring extra command text after the wake word. Fixes #64986. Thanks @zoiks65.
 - Cron/TTS: run cron announce payloads through the normal TTS directive transform before outbound delivery, so scheduled `[[tts]]` replies generate voice payloads instead of leaking raw tags. Fixes #52125. Thanks @kenchen3000.
 - WhatsApp: save downloadable quoted image media from reply context as inbound media, so agents can inspect an image that a user replied to instead of only seeing `<media:image>`. Fixes #59174. Thanks @gaffner.
 - Doctor/WhatsApp: warn when Linux crontabs still run the legacy `ensure-whatsapp.sh` health check, which can misreport `Gateway inactive` when cron lacks the systemd user-bus environment. Fixes #60204. Thanks @mySebbe.
