chore(frank-tts): repoint narrator slots to the live voice packs
Frank replaced the narrator1/2/3 packs with cloned character voices (wilwheaton, vaati, dr.kern, garrickhagon, jeffhays). The three narrator slots are now carried by real packs: narrator1=wilwheaton, narrator2=vaati, narrator3=dr.kern. - frank-tts.env DEFAULT_VOICE narrator1 -> wilwheaton (a voice-less request 400'd on the dead name; wilwheaton is narrator1's successor). - Docs: correct the /health census and the podcast-speaker references in Frank TTS.md and Open Notebook.md to the live packs. Dated 2026-10-18/19 measurement logs are left as history. Open Notebook's live dank-duo speaker profile was repointed over REST (Frank->wilwheaton, Comrade->vaati) - app-side, not in this commit. Bats fixtures keep narrator1 as a self-contained sample pack; untouched.
