Description

### Please fill in the following fields:
Pre-built SDK from the [website](https://firebase.google.com/download/cpp)
Firebase C++ SDK version: 6.12.0
Firebase plugins in use (Auth, Database, etc.): Auth, Firestore, Functions, Storage
Additional SDKs you are using (Facebook, AdMob, etc.): Qt 5.14.1 clang 64bit
Platform you are using the C++ SDK on (Mac, Windows, or Linux): Mac
Platform you are targeting (iOS, Android, and/or desktop): desktop

### Please describe the issue here:

My application crashes when trying to call a Firebase callable function in combination with authentication:

auto pFireBaseApp = firebase::App::Create();
// No crash when I comment out the following line
auto pAuth = firebase::auth::Auth::GetAuth(pFireBaseApp);
auto pFunctions = functions::Functions::GetInstance(pFireBaseApp);

auto ref = pFunctions->GetHttpsCallable("testFunction");
auto future = ref.Call();
future.OnCompletion([](const Future &result) {
// Crash before this is reached but not when commenting out pAuth code
});

It does not crash, and behaves as expected, when not initializing Auth. Note that this behaves the same with a function that doesn't use authentication: `testFunction` is a very simple function that returns a fixed object.

This is the call stack of the crashed thread:

### Please answer the following, if applicable:
Have you been able to reproduce this issue with just the [Firebase C++ quickstarts](https://github.com/firebase/quickstart-cpp) ? Did not try (the quickstart example doesn't use Auth)

What's the issue repro rate? (eg 100%, 1/5 etc) 100%
