fix(expo): declare Google Sign-In ExpoModulesCore dependency

[mikepitre]

Summary

Adds ExpoModulesCore as an explicit dependency of the iOS ClerkGoogleSignIn pod.

Why

After #8901, ClerkGoogleSignInModule.swift became an Expo module and now imports ExpoModulesCore:

import ExpoModulesCore

The ClerkGoogleSignIn podspec did not declare ExpoModulesCore directly, so the generated Podfile could include ExpoModulesCore elsewhere in the app while the ClerkGoogleSignIn pod target still could not import it.

This shows up at Xcode compile time, not during prebuild or pod install:

node_modules/@clerk/expo/ios/ClerkGoogleSignInModule.swift:1:8: error: no such module 'ExpoModulesCore'
import ExpoModulesCore
       ^

Declaring the dependency on the pod that imports it makes CocoaPods wire the module search path correctly for ClerkGoogleSignIn.

Validation

I reproduced the failure locally by installing a test package that matched 3.4.4 but removed only the ExpoModulesCore dependency from ClerkGoogleSignIn.podspec.

Without this change:

• npx expo prebuild --clean --platform ios passed
• npx expo run:ios --no-bundler failed with no such module 'ExpoModulesCore'
• Podfile.lock showed ExpoModulesCore existed globally, but not under ClerkGoogleSignIn

With this change:

• npx expo prebuild --clean --platform ios passed
• Podfile.lock showed ClerkGoogleSignIn directly depends on ExpoModulesCore
• npx expo run:ios --no-bundler passed
• The app loaded in the iOS simulator through Metro

Also ran:

• pnpm --filter @clerk/expo format:check
• git diff --check

Note: local shell reports Node v22.12.0, while the repo asks for >=24.15.0.

Poem

🐇 Hop hop, a pod was lost,
ExpoModulesCore had a hidden cost.
One line added, the build turns green,
The cleanest fix that I have seen.
Patch it up and ship with glee! 🌿
