Subject: [PATCH] docs: fix Smart Denoising (Krisp) default to true

The background speech denoising page listed smartDenoisingPlan.enabled
as default false. The API spec and server behavior default it to true:
Krisp runs even when backgroundSpeechDenoisingPlan is omitted. Correct
the default and add a note showing how to disable it.

 Smart Denoising has a simple on/off configuration:
 
-<ParamField path="smartDenoisingPlan.enabled" type="boolean" default="false">
+<ParamField path="smartDenoisingPlan.enabled" type="boolean" default="true">
   Enable or disable Krisp-powered smart denoising
 </ParamField>
 
+<Note>
+Smart Denoising is **on by default**. If you omit `backgroundSpeechDenoisingPlan`, Krisp still runs on your calls. To turn it off, set `smartDenoisingPlan.enabled` to `false`:
+
+```json
+{
+  "backgroundSpeechDenoisingPlan": {
+    "smartDenoisingPlan": {
+      "enabled": false
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+</Note>

 ### Example: Smart Denoising only
