This is a temporary bandaid to prevent AttributeError when list_audio_backends() is called with torchaudio 2.9+. This does NOT fully address the upgrade to torchaudio 2.9+ and the transition to torchcodec. Changes: - Added hasattr() checks before calling list_audio_backends() - Updated check_torchaudio_backend() and validate_backend() functions - Prevents crash when using speechbrain with torchaudio 2.9+ Related to speechbrain#2977

Fixes #2977
Notes
This is a minimal bandaid fix to unblock users who need to use speechbrain with torchaudio 2.9+. A more comprehensive solution would involve properly migrating to torchcodec for audio loading in torchaudio 2.9+.
