Merge #12050: [trivial] Implements a virtual destructor on the BaseRequestHandler class.

bdb3231 Implements a virtual destructor on the BaseRequestHandler class. (251)

Pull request description:

  Granted that there is no undefined behavior in the current implementation, this PR implements a virtual destructor on the BaseRequestHandler class to protect against undefined behavior in the event that an object of a potential future derived BaseRequestHandler class with a destructor is destroyed through a pointer to this base class.

  This PR also fixes "_warning: delete called on 'BaseRequestHandler' that is abstract but has non-virtual destructor [-Wdelete-non-virtual-dtor]_" warnings in environments where the project is built with the `-Wsystem-headers` flag; or environments where the `-Wdelete-non-virtual-dtor` diagnostics flag fires from system headers.
