Similar as done with SAPI / MSSP make the current implementation for executable
based TTS engines a base class and create derived classes for each supported
TTS. Removes the need for the implementation to know about the individual TTS
engines.
Add support for speaking directly (i.e. without going through a temporary wave
file, currently only used by espeak).

The configuration values for executable based TTS systems is stored in member
variables. Instead of reading them multiple times provide a function for that
and move searching the executable to the loading function.
Previously the executable was only searched in the path when opening the TTS
configuration. Having this in the loading function removes that unnecessary
step in case the TTS is in the path (and doesn't require additional
configuration).

Support retrieving the vendor name of the TTS. This will be used by TTS string
corrections. Currently no other TTS but SAPI supports this, and only correction
strings for SAPI voices depend on the vendor information.
