Both `kon-transcription` and `kon-llm` previously hardcoded their native
acceleration features in Cargo.toml — `whisper-rs` with `vulkan`,
`llama-cpp-2` with `openmp` + `vulkan`. That worked everywhere desktop
ships (Linux/macOS/Windows all have Vulkan via MoltenVK on Mac), but it
made an Android build structurally impossible: NDK builds against drivers
that vary wildly across SoCs (Adreno OK, Mali patchy, PowerVR worse), and
some older devices have no Vulkan at all.
Roadmap step 0 from the Android plan: make the GPU acceleration
opt-in so a CPU-only target compiles. Reuses the existing pattern that
README's "future Windows non-AVX2 build" comment hinted at.
- kon-transcription: new `whisper-vulkan` feature gates `whisper-rs/vulkan`
via the optional-syntax `whisper-rs?/vulkan`. Default features stay as
`["whisper", "whisper-vulkan"]` so desktop is unchanged.
- kon-llm: new `gpu-vulkan` and `openmp` features each gate the matching
`llama-cpp-2` feature. Default stays `["gpu-vulkan", "openmp"]`. They are
independent so an Android Vulkan build can opt into vulkan without
openmp (NDK OpenMP linking has known cross-version fragility).
CPU-only build invocations:
cargo build -p kon-transcription --no-default-features --features whisper
cargo build -p kon-llm --no-default-features
Verified: all 91 tests in the buildable-in-sandbox crates still pass.
The two crates whose Cargo.toml changed (kon-transcription, kon-llm)
can't be compiled in this sandbox (ort-sys CDN + cmake-built llama.cpp);
CI's Linux/macOS/Windows builders will exercise the default-feature path
exactly as before.
