Populates the `api_version` field on a per-`service` basis to the
generated `gapic_metadata.json` using the value from the `service`-level
annotation `google.api.api_version` already parsed for use in the
`X-Goog-Api-Version`/`$apiVersion` system parameter (as of #2671).

Updates the `googleapis.commit` used in internal dependency artifact
generation to capture change to `gapic_metadata.proto`. Chose the most
recent as of writing this. This also has the effect of updating some
unit test goldens and unit test fixture dependencies that are based on
protos at that commit.

The Showcase `echo.proto` already has the `google.api.api_version` set
on `service Echo`, so the `java-showcase` package is appropriately
updated to account for inclusion of `apiVersion` in the
`gapic_metadata.json` output. It is not in use by any API yet.

It's presence in `gapic_metadata.json` will allow parsers to correlate
`service` client to API version.

fix a typo.

Did the typo cause any failures for us? Is this dependency necessary?

Stop running downstream checks on pushing to main as it does not reflect
the repo health. Downstream checks are an optional indicator on
presubmit checks.

These are test only dependencies, dependabot

should not matter as code is not shipped and test is in controlled env.
However, it is good practice to update versions when possible.

Add ignore to make local dev easier when working with vscode or python
code (hermetic build).

Branch configured already. See

Remove hardcoded clirr.skip=false in showcase-clirr check. This enables
us to configure the clirr check in poms.
