Set common inputs to non_db

Due to the updates in version 2.6 of `aiida-core`, the `to_aiida_type`
serializer is used as a default. Therefore, the validation fails for the
inputs defined in the common interfaces, as those are typically defined
as Python datatypes. Since these inputs are anyway not stored in the database, we fix it by explicitly setting `non_db = True` for those inputs.
