[FLINK-8759][network] preparations for the update of netty to version 4.0.56
## What is the purpose of the change
Based on the changes from #5570, this PR prepares a netty version bump by circumventing a bug we had with the change from Netty 4.0.27 to 4.0.28 with the old non-credit based flow control paths:
Versions >= 4.0.28 contain an improvement by Netty, which slices a Netty buffer instead of doing a memory copy (https://github.com/netty/netty/issues/3704) in the `LengthFieldBasedFrameDecoder`. In some situations, this interacts badly with our Netty pipeline leading to `OutOfMemory` errors.
With credit-based flow control this problem should not exist anymore which is why we can use the original netty code there.
## Brief change log
- override `LengthFieldBasedFrameDecoder#extractFrame()` and implement two different code paths depending on whether credit based flow control is on or not
## Verifying this change
This change is a trivial rework / code cleanup without any test coverage.

[FLINK-8768][network] Let NettyMessageDecoder inherit from LengthFieldBasedFrameDecoder
This replaces one additional step from the pipeline and does not only remove
overhead there but also allows use to override the #extractFrame() method to
restore the old Netty 4.0.27 behaviour for non-credit based code paths which
had a bug with Netty >= 4.0.28 there (see FLINK-8759).
