Automated documentation update for pipecat PR #4978.

Changes

Updated: api-reference/server/services/transport/small-webrtc.mdx

  • Added separate installation commands for audio-only (webrtc) and video (webrtc-video) pipelines
  • Added note explaining that webrtc provides audio and basic video support via aiortc, while webrtc-video adds OpenCV for video frame format conversion

Summary of pipecat PR #4978

The pipecat PR made cv2 (OpenCV) import lazy in SmallWebRTCTransport and split the installation extras:

  • webrtc extra now provides audio and basic video support (no longer includes OpenCV by default)
  • New webrtc-video extra adds OpenCV for pipelines that need video frame format conversion
  • Changed from opencv-python to opencv-python-headless to avoid GUI dependencies

Gaps identified

None. The only changed source file was src/pipecat/transports/smallwebrtc/transport.py, which maps to the SmallWebRTC transport doc that has been updated.

Updates SmallWebRTCTransport documentation to reflect pipecat PR #4978:
- Added separate installation commands for audio-only (webrtc) and video (webrtc-video)
- Added note explaining the difference between webrtc and webrtc-video extras
