v3.4.0

🚀 LocalAI 3.4.0

What’s New in LocalAI 3.4.0 🎉

• WebUI improvements: now size can be set during image generation
• New backends: KittenTTS, kokoro and dia now are available as backends and models can be installed directly from the gallery
  Note: these backends needs to be warmed up during the first call to download the model files.
• Support for reasoning effort in the OpenAI chat completion
• Diffusers backend now is available for l4t images and devices
• During backend installation from the CLI can be supplied alias and name (--alias and --name`) to override configurations
• Backends now can be sideloaded from the system: you can drag-and-drop the backends in the backends folder and they will just work!
