This PR makes it explicit that using the latest version alias for secret in Secret Manager is not recommended.

Adds text to the GCP README explaining that keys are stored in Secret Manager, along with a warning about the latest alias.
Removes the unusual check that the requested key secret name is the same as the returned secret name, and replaces with a more explicit test for latest logging a warning if present.
