llm_wrapper.py
--------------
Thin LLM wrapper that streams sentence-by-sentence for low latency.
Supports:
  - Ollama  (local, zero-cost)
  - OpenAI / any OpenAI-compatible API  (e.g. Together, Groq, vLLM)
  - Echo    (no-op for testing pipeline without an LLM)

KEY CHANGE: All backends now return an Iterator[str] of sentences rather
than a single complete string.  This lets live_avatar_pipeline.py feed the
first sentence to TTS+FlashHead while the LLM is still generating the rest,
cutting perceived latency by 50–70 % on longer responses.

Install for Ollama:   https://ollama.com  then  ollama pull llama3
Install for OpenAI:   pip install openai
