Description
### Description
1. Before your firebase code can run, firebase always needs a few moments until it can run.
2. Mostly used is OnAuthStateChanged() which executes the code when a user is found.
However that does not work when there is no user or when the code that needs to know if there is a user starts immidiatly.
So there is always a timing problem which can be hard to solve (To use a timer for example is not how you want the code to work)
3. To have a promise like await initFirebase() that will wait until firebase is ready to be used would be fantastic.
Thank you for your time

Research direction
No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by locating the Firebase Performance initialization path and existing readiness behavior, then clarify the proposed await initFirebase() API and define how completion should be verified when Firebase has and has not found a user.
