[Bug]: Speech Recognition result cannot always be converted to Pronunciation Assessment Result

What happened?

I ran into an issue where an audio recording sent didn't have any detectable speech in it. I would expect some kind of error message to come back, but what I did not expect is that the SDK would throw an error over it when used as shown in examples.

Cannot read properties of undefined (reading '0')

This is coming from line 108 here: https://github.com/microsoft/cognitive-services-speech-sdk-js/blob/b062648064d9b353b08ec67af0e41f48a9bea4da/src/sdk/PronunciationAssessmentResult.ts#L103-L110

It seems like the types are inaccurate for j.NBest. When the Speech Recognizer is handed an audio file that does not have any words in it, the result comes back without any errors, but also rather sparse without many fields including NBest. For example:

SpeechRecognitionResult {
      privResultId: '75EDA7E5421A411F81E0D64B9504D75C',
      privReason: 0,
      privText: undefined,
      privDuration: 49200000,
      privOffset: 0,
      privLanguage: undefined,
      privLanguageDetectionConfidence: undefined,
      privErrorDetails: undefined,
      privJson: '{"Id":"0ed4402056c8472a99bc19fff317a024","RecognitionStatus":2,"Offset":0,"Duration":49200000,"Channel":0,"SNR":0}',
      privProperties: PropertyCollection {
        privKeys: [ 'SpeechServiceResponse_JsonResult' ],
        privValues: [
          '{"Id":"0ed4402056c8472a99bc19fff317a024","RecognitionStatus":"InitialSilenceTimeout","Offset":0,"Duration":49200000,"Channel":0,"SNR":0.0}'
        ]
      },
      privSpeakerId: undefined
    }

It would be really useful if this behavior (and overall, all of the potential response formats from the API) were documented somewhere accurately. It's hard to build robust applications that fail gracefully when the behavior of dependencies is undocumented.

Using v1.33.1, but the "Version" dropdown in the issue form only lists up to 1.33.0.

Version
