Allow delegate_to if transport is not cli (#29945)

Browse source 
Fixes #29060

Allow delegate_to if transport is either nxapi or eapi.

Persistent connection uses `cli` transport and create
a local socket on control node. Hence delegate_to is not allowed
for `cli` transport.

However as `nxapi` and `eapi` transport does not use persistent connection
it is possible to use delegate_to in this case.

delegate_to vs ProxyCommand
---------------------------
The new connection framework for Network Modules in Ansible 2.3 no longer supports the use of the
``delegate_to`` directive. In order to use a bastion or intermediate jump host
to connect to network devices, network modules now support the use of
``ProxyCommand``.
The new connection framework for Network Modules in Ansible 2.3 that uses ``cli`` transport
no longer supports the use of the ``delegate_to`` directive.
In order to use a bastion or intermediate jump host to connect to network devices over ``cli``
transport, network modules now support the use of ``ProxyCommand``.
To use ``ProxyCommand`` configure the proxy settings in the Ansible inventory
file to specify the proxy host.
