      In the iOS SDK, the Credentials class (a.k.a. RLMCredentials) can be created for the Google provider with the call

      Credentials(googleToken: …)

      (or a similar callRLMCredentials(cm)credentialsWithGoogleToken in Objective-C).

      The call, however, doesn't work with any of the tokens returned by Google, but requires the serverAuthCode from the user instead (that's obtained by specifying both a clientId and a serverClientId in the Google Sign In configuration).

      This proves to be confusing for the developer: it would be better to rename the method to make clear what's expected.
