Recorded voice messages #42

A small feature that would make sense with the proposed asynchronous chat caching (Sorry closing as duplicate of https://github.com/AnemoneLabs/unmessage/issues/32) is recorded voice messages.

It would use the already included OPUS codec of course. Messages would be a minute long to keep size reasonable?

Thanks for opening this! Someone suggested that in #13 and I completely forgot to track.

Good question. It is possible to split unMessage elements into multiple packets, so "in theory" it should be possible to transmit long messages. I do think we should set a limit and one minute sounds good, but I honestly do not know what would be a good size.
