The command is niche and better served by the host audio system. There is no QMP equivalent, fortunately. You can capture the audio stream via remote desktop protocols too (dbus, vnc, spice).

Adding build time options to disable functionality is not the way we handle deprecation in QEMU. This should update deprecated.rst and then change the impl of the HMP commands so that they print a warning (once only) when invoked.
