Issue summary:
The php example for working with Google Analytics Service does not work. Since 
the code was updated, then the class "Google_Auth_AssertionCredentials" does 
not exist. And the method "setAssertionCredentials" has been removed from the 
class "Google_Client".

I suggest to use the following code:

$client = new Google_Client();
$client->setApplicationName("helloAnalytics");
$client->setAuthConfig("service-account-credentials.json");
$client->setScopes('https://www.googleapis.com/auth/analytics.readonly');
$service = new Google_Service_Analytics($client);

As you can see in this example used json config file instead p12 file. I 
suggest to use this example, because at the stage of creating the key 
recommended choosing json format. Consequently, it would be helpful to more 
people.
