Fix delimited inheritance in all languages.

This was previously fixed in C++ (#16549), but not ported to other languages.  Delimited field encoding can be inherited by fields where it's invalid, such as non-messages and maps.  In these cases, the encoding should be ignored and length-prefixed should be used.
