fix(ivy): detect frozen flyweight objects in definitions and unfreeze (#25755)

defineComponent() and friends can return a flyweight EMPTY object for
specific fields when they contain no data. InheritDefinitionFeature
was attempting to write into these flyweight objects, which have been
protected with Object.freeze().

This commit adds detection to InheritDefinitionFeature to identify the
frozen objects.
