Unsupported subtype: PCM_24

🐛 Describe the bug

By documentation of torchaudio.load(), the expected behaviour for handling 24-bit WAV files is the following:

Since torch does not support int24 dtype, 24-bit signed PCM are converted to int32 tensors.

When calling torchaudio.load() in Windows, using PySoundFile, on a 24-bit WAV file, the rows 222 - 228:

    with soundfile.SoundFile(filepath, "r") as file_:
        if file_.format != "WAV" or normalize:
            dtype = "float32"
        elif file_.subtype not in _SUBTYPE2DTYPE:
            raise ValueError(f"Unsupported subtype: {file_.subtype}")
        else:
            dtype = _SUBTYPE2DTYPE[file_.subtype]

and _SUBTYPE2DTYPE is:
_SUBTYPE2DTYPE = { "PCM_S8": "int8", "PCM_U8": "uint8", "PCM_16": "int16", "PCM_32": "int32", "FLOAT": "float32", "DOUBLE": "float64", }

are raising the following error:
ValueError: Unsupported subtype: PCM_24

Adding a simple "PCM_24:" "int32" to _SUBTYPE2DTYPE solves the problem.

I think this is by design, since 24 is not a power of 2.
I encountered the same error on linux, and it was solved by using the normalize=True parameter in the call of torchaudio.load() (this converts the audio file to Float32 format, its default value is True but I manually set it to False before).
