False positive, Firebase API key #14

Description

@19007361

Hello, and thank you for the GitGuardian service that you provide, it is really useful.

I want to point out that you should not auto-detect a Firebase API key as "compromised" since this is not a private key but a public key that any entity should access in order to connect to the Firebase API that was set up. Authentication allows only some/all end-users to access/modify/validate certain parts of it, so the API key is not the one that should be guarded.
