What's Changed

• Vertex AI in Firebase is now Generally Available (GA) and can be used in production apps.
  Use the Vertex AI in Firebase library to call the Vertex AI Gemini API directly from your app.
  This client library is built specifically for use with Swift apps, offering security options against
  unauthorized clients as well as integrations with other Firebase services.
  Note: Vertex AI in Firebase is currently only available in Swift Package Manager and CocoaPods.
  Stay tuned for the next release for the Zip and Carthage distributions.
