[SoundBlaster]

Description

Prepare the 0.4.3 patch release for the work merged after v0.4.2 by bumping release metadata, syncing the README and DocC overview version badges, adding the CHANGELOG.md entry, and archiving the full FLOW artifacts for P8-T2.

Validation report: SPECS/ARCHIVE/P8-T2_Prepare_for_Release_0.4.3/P8-T2_Validation_Report.md

Post-merge only: tag v0.4.3 on main, push the tag, and verify publish-mcp.yml, PyPI, and MCP Registry.
