There are some APIs that have started to use this type for the request and/or respsonse. Similar to how we had to specially handle protos HTTP body we need a good translation for this type as well. map[string]any seemed like the best fit as that is the input needed to create a Struct. The other choice would have been a googleapis.RawMessage. RawMessage is used today when a field would be of type Struct, but this is a less convient type, and less precise type, to use than a map directly.
