VoIP: attempt at changing voipPower calc and using it for VAD.

The Speex VAD sort of sucks, honestly, or I'm not using it right. Now
 trying this algorithm, after denoising:

    http://lists.xiph.org/pipermail/speex-dev/2006-March/004269.html

And I'll play around to find the threshold for considering a set of frames
 to be "voice" from there.

Also worth noting: we consider the power of the set of frames as a whole, so
 you need to sustain power for 0.25 seconds at a time, or it's not "voice."
