fix(analytics): fix the typing for screen_view event logging

[GoodSir42]

Description

Motivation:
Since migrating from logScreenView to logging screen_view events we lost the screen tracking in our project. To prevent this from happening to other developers only the typing information has to be fixed.
Without the change developers are encouraged to use faulty parameter names, leading to errors in the firebase backend and dropped events due to reserved property names. If the names screen_name and screen class are used the issue does not exist and screen views are tracked as before via logScreenView

See issue #8609 for more details on this.

It is likely that the EventParams firebase_screen and firebase_screen_class are not needed any more.

Fixes #8609

Release Summary

This changes the names you need to supply to logEvent(analytics, 'screen_view') to what it should have been already. Without a change to parameter names your screen tracking will not work!

it would be great to get some movement into this rather minor change :) so far @liamjones had a look, but we need another person to review it

LGTM thanks for making this:

Are we able to get it fully matching https://firebase.google.com/docs/analytics/screenviews#web ??
Our aim on React Native Firebase is to make it match the js-sdk so users if not looking at react native docs can also refer to js.

unfortunately not, as those property names are illegal for the native SDKs. I also thought about exposing the names like on the JS SDK but then change them internally, but I am a bit lost in the js code there

The only possibility to keep the invalid parameter names I see right now is to have an if in the logEvent function that rebuilds the parameters. If you have any better hints I would gladly implement them. @MichaelVerdon
