Make google-auth an optional dependency #2134
Description
This is a dupe of #1486 which was closed but which was never tackled. Feel free to re-open that one and close this one
What is the feature and why do you need it:
From what I can gather, google-auth is only required when using the google cloud platform.
Since it's of use only to a subset of the users, I propose that that dependency gets moved from the general requirements to the extras part of the setup.py file. Users that require this feature would install the package using, for example, a "gcp" extras flag (e.g. pip install kubernetes[gcp]).
In corporate environments, where compliance regulations require tracking and justifying all packages installed, this would reduce the maintenance burden by removing a whole section of the dependency tree when it's not needed.
Describe the solution you'd like to see:
Only install google-auth if it's needed by having e.g. a kubernetes[gcp] variant of the kubernetes package.
