This merge request works around an annoying startup hang that I introduced when adding text-to-speech to NeoChat. The previous implementation was a QML singleton that used the `TextToSpeech` QML component. Unfortunately that component blocks the UI thread when first loading it, while it connects to speech-dispatcher. This MR just rewrites that singleton in C++, and moves initialization of QtTextToSpeech to the first time you read a message aloud. It doesn't fix the performance problem, but it at least stops it from affecting startup. In the future, I'd like to move speech operations to a background thread to completely mitigate the initialization freeze.
