Outputs and behavior

Download a tracked podcast episode's audio to its canonical local MP3. Use after list_podcast_episodes, before transcribe_podcast_episode; use episode_to_corpus only after a transcript exists. Requires yt-dlp and ffmpeg, and blocks until download finishes or fails. Reuses an existing nonempty canonical file and records its path on the episode.
