`transcribe_url`Ingest and transcribe an EXTERNAL / arbitrary audio URL — a URL the user pasted, or audio not reachable through the index. Creates a STANDALONE episode row.

Consumes 1 transcription credit, or one unit of subscription quota; the credit is refunded automatically if transcription fails. Pass feed_id / podcast_name when you already know the parent show (e.g. from search_podcasts or list_feed_episodes) so the episode lands under its real show instead of appearing as unidentified "External audio".
