Subject: feat(audio): Implement real-time spectrogram synthesizer

Adds a multi-voice, real-time audio synthesis engine that generates sound from spectrogram data using an Inverse Discrete Cosine Transform (IDCT).

Key features:
- A thread-safe, double-buffered system for dynamically updating spectrograms in real-time without interrupting audio playback.
- Core DSP components: FDCT, IDCT, and Hamming window functions.
- A simple sequencer in the main loop to demonstrate scripted audio events and dynamic updates.
- Unit tests for the new synth engine and Hamming window, integrated with CTest.
- A  file documenting the build process, features, and how to run tests.
