Description
`async_rest` has been an optional dependency., leading to installation of `google-auth[aiohttp] >= 2.35.0`. WBut now we unconditionally required `google_-auth >= 2.35.0`. We should determine whether we can get rid of the extra, and whether we can get rid of the `tr/import/except` pattern in multiple places that tests for the async REST dependencies.
This is motivated by a [PR conversation](https://github.com/googleapis/python-api-core/pull/877#discussion_r2771665845).
