Description

### What happened?

When GOOGLE_GENAI_USE_VERTEXAI=FALSE is set, LiteLLM should use Google AI Studio with the GOOGLE_API_KEY, not attempt Vertex AI authentication.

LiteLLM defaults to Vertex AI regardless of the GOOGLE_GENAI_USE_VERTEXAI setting, causing authentication errors:

I have fixed the issue I will be raising the PR soon

### Relevant log output

```shell
litellm.exceptions.AuthenticationError: geminiException - {
"error": {
"code": 400,
"message": "API key not valid. Please pass a valid API key.",

}
}
