com.firebaseui:firebase-ui-auth needs an upgrade

[amazingvoice]

Removing Credentials API in play-services-auth 21.0.0 breaks the code. It seems the newest com.firebaseui:firebase-ui-auth version 8.0.2 wasn't adjust for the change.

The crash stacktrace is as follows:

In \build-android-start\app\build.gradle.kts, downgrade to 20.7.0:

implementation("com.google.android.gms:play-services-auth:20.7.0")
