Lawrence Jones 0dfdc11ed9 Automatically load Google auth
This change removes the hardcoded Google auth mechanism for the GCS
backend, instead using Google's provided client library to discover and
generate credential material.

Google recommend that client libraries use their common auth mechanism
in order to authorise requests against Google services. Doing so means
you automatically support various types of authentication, from the
standard GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS environment variable to making
use of Google's metadata API if running within Google Container Engine.
