[FR] Add a function that initializes an App or returns existing one
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
A function initializeApp throws an error if the app is already existed at the time. As current workaround, we need to handle thrown error.
(related: https://github.com/firebase/firebase-admin-node/issues/2111 )
Describe the solution you'd like
Add a function wrapping initializeApp and getApp, that returns existing FirebaseApp, or initialize a new FirebaseApp if the app doesn't exist.
