Description

`combine-libraries` is a command in [gapic-node-postprocessing](https://github.com/googleapis/google-cloud-node/blob/main/core/packages/gapic-node-processing/src/combine-libraries.ts#L269). It merges multiple versioned APIs into one library directory.

We should rewrite the function in librarian and remove the calls to `combine-libraries` command.

Research direction

Start with core/packages/gapic-node-processing/src/combine-libraries.ts at the `combine-libraries` command, then inspect librarian's command and library-generation entry points to locate its replacement. The work is complete when the function is implemented in librarian and the existing calls to `combine-libraries` are removed.
