Improvements - observability, logging, and patches

We have improved logging for our LeMUR service to allow for the surfacing of more detailed errors to users.

We have increased observability into our Speech API internally, allowing for finer grained metrics of usage.

We have fixed a minor bug that would sometimes lead to incorrect timestamps for zero-confidence words.

We have fixed an issue in which requests to LeMUR would occasionally hang during peak usage due to a memory leak issue.
