Fixes modify_action_space in RslRlVecEnvWrapper (#2185)

# Description

This PR corrects the position of the method
`self._modify_action_space()` in the RSL-RL Wrapper, so that it is only
called after retrieving the dimensions of the environment, preventing
errors related to the use of uninitialized attributes when using
`clip_actions` in `RslRlVecEnvWrapper`.

Fixes #2184
