Error in deserialize function for parameterized abstract and sealed classes

Describe the bug Errors occurred when trying to deserialize instances for parameterized abstract and sealed classes.

To Reproduce

    @Serializable
    sealed class TypedSealedClass<T>(val a: T) {
        @Serializable
        data class Child(val y: Int) : TypedSealedClass<Int>(10)
    }

and try to deserialize it

        val child = Json.encodeToString(TypedSealedClass.serializer(Int.serializer()), TypedSealedClass.Child(10))
        Json.decodeFromString(TypedSealedClass.serializer(Int.serializer()), child)

For JVM backend error occurred

same for abstract classes

Expected behavior deserialize finished successfully

Environment

• Kotlin version: 1.4.30-M1
• Library version: 1.0.1
• Kotlin platforms: JVM, JVM IR

There’s an easy workaround, the goal is to get rid of concrete property in parent class:

Change

    @Serializable
    sealed class TypedSealedClass<T>(val a: T) {
        @Serializable
        data class Child(val y: Int) : TypedSealedClass<Int>(10)
    }

Into

    @Serializable
    sealed class TypedSealedClass<T>() {
        abstract val a: T
        
        @Serializable
        data class Child(val y: Int) : TypedSealedClass<Int>() {
            @EncodeDefault override val a: Int = 10
        }
    }

This is still an issue in “org.jetbrains.kotlinx:kotlinx-serialization-json:1.4.0” in combination with Kotlin 1.7.10 and Java 17.
