Whisper-OpenAI r150

Standalone Whisper.
Last included commit: #150.

Whisper-OpenAI includes all needed libs.

cuBLAS and cuDNN

Place libs in the same folder where Faster-Whisper executable is. Or to:
Windows: To System32 dir.
Linux: To dir in LD_LIBRARY_PATH env.

.7z vs .zip - archives contain same files.

CUDA11_v2 is the last with support for GPUs with Kepler chip.
