Generating New Access Token After Being Expired

See original GitHub issue

The authentication is working great for me in browser and on iOS, however after the access_token expires, I start getting invalid_token when making requests to Google’s API. Is there a way to refresh the access_token?

Looking at the source, it appears only signIn() and signOut are implemented. However looks like you’re calling await googleUser.reloadAuthResponse(); in signIn. Would exposing this as a method help generate a new access_token?

Is there any planning to let the plugin manage the refresh in the background? It would be great to have a callback whenever there is a token update in order to save the updated token to the application store 😃
