When I wrote the docs I thought that Firebase would always include a web OAuth client ID, but it appears that this is not always the case (e.g.,
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/55572583/google-services-json-missing-client-type-3) so this adds more docs about what is required for this to work correctly.

Also adds a note that a missing ID error could be due to incorrect gradle configuration, as that's not necessarily clear from the Firebase docs.

Fixes flutter/flutter#172073
