Fixes the age old problem of #68 (alternative solution to #93). Turns out arecord doesn't pipe audio after a given file formats max file size. So you can't record indefinitely, which is the whole point of Sonus 😂. This change keeps track of the number of bytes streamed and restarts the recording process silently (hooray).
The only downside is that it's not a totally seamless transition from one stream to another. If you're mid-utterance when the change happens, the remainder of the utterance will not be streamed to the cloud detector. But that's better than it stopping completely, so I'll take it 👌
