Version 3.3.0

Major Feature: Multilanguage ChatterBox Support

🌍 NEW: Multi-language ChatterBox TTS
- Language dropdown for English, German, Norwegian models
- Automatic HuggingFace model download and management
- Local model prioritization for faster generation
- Safetensors format support with .pt backward compatibility
- Language-aware caching system to prevent model conflicts

🎯 Enhanced Nodes:
- ChatterBox TTS Node: Full multilanguage support
- ChatterBox SRT TTS Node: SRT timing with multilanguage models
- Character switching works seamlessly with all supported languages

⚠️  BREAKING CHANGE: Workflow Compatibility
- Added language parameter as second input in both TTS nodes
- Existing workflows need manual parameter adjustment
- All example workflows updated for new parameter structure

🔧 Technical Improvements:
- Enhanced model manager with language-specific loading
- Robust fallback system: local → HuggingFace → English fallback
- JaneDoe84's safetensors loading fix integrated safely
- Language-aware cache keys prevent cross-language conflicts
