Can a local model be used without requesting the Hugging Face API?

[Jiangdi]

Is there a way to use a local model without requesting the Hugging Face API? For some reason, the user cannot access the Huggingface API.

`

let whisperKit = try await WhisperKit(
verbose: true,
logLevel: .debug,
prewarm: false,
load: false,
download: false
)

    let path = Path.home/"Documents/openai_whisper-small/"

`

The issue might be caused by calling the HubApi. Currently, the logic for obtaining the Tokenizer for the local model seems to involve remote retrieval.

Hi @jiangdi0924 , please check out #81. This should be fixed soon.

This is fixed in the 0.6.1 release (c20943d). Please reopen the issue if the problem persists.
