Dictation always stops when you release the hotkey

Two hotkey fixes make push-to-talk dependable:

Releasing always stops: rarely, letting go of your hotkey didn't end the dictation — it kept listening until you pressed again. Epilude now double-checks the real key state and stops within a second, even when macOS drops the release event.

Works on more keyboards: hotkeys bound to a specific side, like Left ⌘, could silently never trigger on keyboards that don't report which side was pressed. They now work everywhere, while still respecting the side on keyboards that do.
