Refactor compat (#3518)

Summary:
The I/O functions in _compat module was introduced there so that
everything related to FFmpeg is in torchaudio.io and FFmpeg library
initialization can be carried out in `torchaudio.io.__init__`.

Now that this constraint is removed, (all the initialization happens
at `torchaudio._extension.__init__`) and `_compat` is only used by
FFmpeg dispatcher backend, we move the module to `torchaudio._backend`
for better locality.
