### Steps and code to reproduce issue

In this [example](https://firebase.google.com/docs/reference/js/auth.oauthprovider#example), it references this [deprecated library](https://developers.google.com/identity/sign-in/web/reference).

Research direction

Start with the linked Firebase Auth auth.oauthprovider example and compare its referenced sign-in library with the linked Google Identity Services overview. Update the example's documentation references so they use the current service, then verify that the example no longer points to the deprecated Google Sign-In JavaScript platform library.
