fix #1341
UserAccessTokenCredential was initially added for mTLS feature since at that time user credentials had issues (which is already fixed now). Therefore we want to deprecate UserAccessTokenCredential since it's google-auth specific, and not available in other languages. Users are recommended to use user credentials instead (google.oauth2.credentials.Credentials), which is a generic application default credential type available in all languages. To use it, simply run
gcloud auth application-default loginand let the client libraries automatically use it.
