Weighted SSL model not unfreezable
### Describe the bug

In our HF Weighted SSL model implementation, we `detach()` the hidden states, meaning weights are not updated.

Relevant code:
https://github.com/speechbrain/speechbrain/blob/develop/speechbrain/lobes/models/huggingface_transformers/weighted_ssl.py#L81

```
hidden_states = torch.stack(feats.hidden_states, dim=0).detach()
```

### Expected behaviour

If passing `freeze=False` I'd expect the weights to get updated.

### To Reproduce

_No response_

### Environment Details

_No response_

### Relevant Log Output

_No response_

### Additional Context

_No response_
