Allow using Gemini CLI for free Gemini requests

[skyfallwastaken]

I'm going to apologise in advance if this is a unreasonable request, but Gemini CLI has a very generous free tier and it would be quite nice to route Gemini requests through it (especially since it costs Google the same amount of money anyway)

Note that the authentication scheme Gemini CLI uses is public: https://github.com/google-gemini/gemini-cli/blob/main/packages/core/src/code_assist/oauth2.ts

this would honestly be a great PR it might fit in very nicely into how claude pro/max is implemented

With Qwen Coder CLI now out, this is becoming very interesting:

• Gemini CLI and Qwen CLI are very similar (Qwen CLI is fork of the Gemini cli code)
• Both provide very generous daily limits of free requests! They are practically free for individuals ....
• Both use OAuth for the free personal access, not tokens.

I suspect more (Chineses) AI labs will clone Gemini CLI and couple it with OAuth + generaous free daily usage quota.

That is an opportunity for OpenCode to rule them all, @thdxr
