The German locale was the only one using gender-inclusive forms
("Sprecher:innen", "Nutzer:in"), and only in five of the strings that talk
about speakers -- the rest of the file already used the generic form, so the
UI read inconsistently. Unify on the generic form.

Split out of #324 so the technical header change there is not tied to a
language decision — this one is entirely yours to accept or drop.
The German locale was the only one using gender-inclusive forms, and only in
five of the strings that talk about speakers:
label_speaker:Sprecher:in erkennen:→Sprecher erkennen:speaker_identification:Sprecher:innenidentifikation→Sprecheridentifikationstart_identifying_speakers:Sprecher:innen identifizieren...→Sprecher identifizieren...err_identifying_speakers:... Erkennung der Sprecher:innen.→... Erkennung der Sprecher.err_user_cancelation:Abbruch durch Nutzer:in→Abbruch durch NutzerThe rest of the file already used the generic form (e.g.
job_tt_canceled:"Auftrag vom Benutzer abgebrochen"), so the UI read inconsistently. This unifies
on the generic form;
trans/noScribe.de.ymlis the only file touched.🤖 Generated with Claude Code
