Description
**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.**
Currently, this package only allows the use of `signInWithPopup`. This causes issues with users that are browsing a website in an in-app browser (like Instagram).
**Describe the solution you'd like**
Add a flag to choose between `signInWithPopup` and `signInWithRedirect`

Research direction
Start at the authentication entry point that currently calls Firebase signInWithPopup, and compare it with signInWithRedirect, using the linked Firebase issue for context. Define how the requested flag selects each flow and verify that redirect-based sign-in works in an in-app browser such as Instagram.
