Research direction

Search all component README files for links to AUTHENTICATION.md and review the related issue context at #9115. Update those links to the cloud reference authentication page, then verify that no component README still points to the repository file.

Description

See https://github.com/googleapis/google-cloud-php/issues/9115

In all the component READMEs we link to AUTHENTICATION.md on github, but we should be guiding users to the reference docs at https://docs.cloud.google.com/php/docs/reference/help/authentication
