Description
## What feature would you like to see?
At the moment Firebase has BoM which is nice way of ensuring that all dependencies are the same accross diferent modules.
In Gradle 7 new more lightweight way of declaring dependencies was added and would be nice if Firebase supported that.
Basically we need a catalog of recomendations instead of BoM so we can easily use it with central declaration.

## How would you use it?
We could use catalog of recomendations instead of BoM
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reading the linked Gradle version-catalog documentation and comparing it with the Firebase Android SDK's existing BoM support. The payload names no repository files or tests, so locate the dependency-management entry points before deciding the scope. Done means Firebase dependencies can be consumed through a central Gradle version catalog instead of only the BoM.
