It's been my observation that those systems do not set CAA records, for
example, a domain hosted via 

$ host someapp.example.com
someapp.example.com is an alias for ghs.googlehosted.com.
ghs.googlehosted.com has address 172.217.7.179
ghs.googlehosted.com has IPv6 address 2607:f8b0:4004:800::2013
$ host -t caa ghs.googlehosted.com
ghs.googlehosted.com has no CAA record
$ 

or

$ host someapp.example.com
someapp.example.com is an alias for someapp.example.com.cdn.jiveon.com.
someapp.example.com.cdn.jiveon.com is an alias for 
vanity20.jiveon.com.edgekey.net.
vanity20.jiveon.com.edgekey.net is an alias for e13068.dscb.akamaiedge.net.
e13068.dscb.akamaiedge.net has address 104.108.119.92
e13068.dscb.akamaiedge.net has IPv6 address 2600:1400:d:68a::330c
e13068.dscb.akamaiedge.net has IPv6 address 2600:1400:d:697::330c
$ host -t caa e13068.dscb.akamaiedge.net
e13068.dscb.akamaiedge.net has no CAA record
$ 

or

$ host someapp.example.com
someapp.example.com is an alias for someapp.example.com.cdn.cloudflare.net.
someapp.example.com.cdn.cloudflare.net has address 104.16.125.51
someapp.example.com.cdn.cloudflare.net has address 104.16.126.51
$ host -t caa someapp.example.com.cdn.cloudflare.net
someapp.example.com.cdn.cloudflare.net has no CAA record


I also think that's reasonable, since any number of services might host
their apps on the provider's platform, so they likely have a large
number of CNAME records pointing to them.  For each one, the service in
question might use a different CA, and ghs.googlehosted.com (in this
example) would need to add those CAs to its CAA records.
