Show/play recordings for word-forms in paradigms, when they exist #1026

Based on the questions that we keep on seeing in e.g. the Facebook group for the nêhiyawêwin word of the day, how to pronounce a Cree word-form figures topmost as a desired feature, and is not just restricted to lemmas/citation forms.

If it were possible to include in our paradigms an icon (e.g. the speaker icon) that would play a recording for a word-form when such exists (and which could be just of the recordings, if there are many), that would be an impactful development - even before we substantially revise the paradigm layouts.

Example (c) from #505 already captured the essential gist of what this could look like (without the synthesized recordings):
