Description
**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.**
A function `initializeApp` throws an error if the app is already existed at the time. As current workaround, we need to handle thrown error.
(related: https://github.com/firebase/firebase-admin-node/issues/2111 )
**Describe the solution you'd like**
Add a function wrapping `initializeApp` and `getApp`, that returns existing FirebaseApp, or initialize a new FirebaseApp if the app doesn't exist.
