What previously was a generic error message like:
> ⚠️ Error: An error occurred while processing your message. Please try again.
.. now becomes a much more helpful error message like:
> ⚠️ Error: There was a problem performing image-generation via the room-local/my-openai-agent agent:
>
> invalid_request_error: Invalid value: 'standard'. Supported values are: 'low', 'medium', 'high', and 'auto'. (param: quality) (code: invalid_value)

🦻 is used for another purpose - to denote that a message is one coming
from speech-to-text, by:
- having the bot react to its own speech-to-text transcription message
with the 🦻 emoji when it's posted in a non-thread
- having the bot prefix its speech-to-text transcription messages with
`> 🦻` when it's posted in a thread
⏳ is already used as a progress indicator for other features, so it
makes sense to use it for indicating that speech-to-text is happening for a given audio message as well.
While 🦻 was an even more descriptive illustration of what's actually happening to the audio message
("it's being heard by the bot"), us using the 🦻 emoji for different things didn't seem good.
When speech-to-text/flow-type = `only_transcribe`, the bot will now send
text messages by default, not notices.
While notice messages may be less desirable with other bots in the room,
it's probably a better default for most people who enable "transcribe-only" mode.
This is an improvement related to https://github.com/etkecc/baibot/issues/14
Various clients (including newer versions of Element Web), do not like
it when the `body` field of the attachment is not a file name.
For images, a preview may not be shown and downloading the attachment
may suggest that the whole long text is used as a filename (which is odd).
There is value (improved accessibility, etc.)
in adding better descriptions (especially to generated images),
but given that it's currently problematic, I'm getting rid of it.
It's better and safer if we stick to using filenames.
This patch introduces a new `baibot_conversation_start_time_utc`
variable which indicates the time the conversation got started.
Using `baibot_now_utc` is still possible, but given that the current
time is a moving target, its use is in conflict with prompt caching.
Because the new `baibot_conversation_start_time_utc` prompt variable
is a more reasonable default, we're now using it in all sample configs.
