This commit stores the VAD context in the whisper_state structure, allowing for better management and reuse of the VAD context across multiple calls to the whisper_vad function. The motivation for this change is that when updating the stream example I noticed that the VAD context was being re-initialized every time the whisper_vad function was called. This involved loading the VAD model which is expensive and unnecessary if the context can be reused. Storing this in the whisper_state seems follow the pattern simliar to how whisper_coreml_context and whisper_openvion_context are stored.
