encoding/json: ignore embedded fields of pointers to unexported non-structs

https://golang.org/cl/33773 fixes the JSON marshaler to avoid serializing
embedded fields on unexported types of non-struct types. However, Go allows
embedding pointer to types, so the check for whether the field is a non-struct
type must first dereference the pointer to get at the underlying type.

Furthermore, due to a edge-case in the behavior of StructField.PkgPath not
being a reliable indicator of whether the field is unexported (see #21122),
we use our own logic to determine whether the field is exported or not.

The logic in this CL may be simplified depending on what happens in #21122.

Fixes #21121
Updates #21122
