We frequently use the pattern
try:
import m
except ImportError:
# do something else.
This suppresses errors when the module can be found but does not import
successfully for any reason. Instead, catch only ModuleNotFoundError so
missing modules are allowed but buggy modules still report errors.
* replace uses of `jax.ops.index[...]` with `jax.numpy.index_exp[...]`, which is a standard NumPy function that does the same thing.
* remove some redundant uses of `jax.ops.index[...]`, where the expression is passed directly to an indexed accessor function like `.at[...]`.
* update some remaining users of `jax.ops.index_update(x, jax.ops.index[idx], y)` to use the `x.at[idx].set(y)` APIs.
