Reason: Google is limiting access to their private Chrome APIs starting
on March 15, 2021 [0]. Closes NixOS#110245.

From the mailing list thread [1]:
"The changes we announced affect the OAuth 2.0 client id and secret
which are used for signing into Chrome, not the API key."
"To avoid using that API, it's sufficient to either not set the OAuth
2.0 credentials, or disabling the Google signin integration" (e.g. by
passing the flag --allow-browser-signin=false)

(cherry picked from commit dc9f2c5)
Might not be that readable and reliable but it should get the job done.
