StripeClientBuilder throws an exception with null apiKey

src/main/java/com/stripe/StripeClient.java の、リンクされている StripeClientBuilder.setApiKey の実装付近から開始し、build() の検証パスを追ってください。グローバルキーを持たないクライアントが RequestOptions から認証情報を取得する方法を確認し、その後、null キーで構築が成功すること、およびリクエストごとのキーを使用する呼び出しが期待どおりに動作することを検証してください。

Describe the bug

When initializing StripeClient using StripeClient.builder(), providing a null value for the API key via .setApiKey(null) is allowed by the builder's interface. However, calling .build() on this builder results in an IllegalArgumentException because a global API key is expected at build time.

In a multi-tenant environment, it's common to use a single StripeClient instance and provide the specific tenant's API key with each request using RequestOptions.builder().setApiKey("sk_..."). In such scenarios, a global API key for the StripeClient itself is not necessary and might even be undesirable.

Currently, the SDK mandates a non-null API key during StripeClient construction, even if RequestOptions will be used for every subsequent API call.

To Reproduce

Attempt to build a StripeClient with a null API key:

try {
    StripeClient client = StripeClient.builder()
        .setApiKey(null) // Explicitly setting null, or not calling setApiKey if it defaults to null internally and is checked
        .build();
    // Potentially make a call, though the build() itself might fail
    // CustomerCollection customers = client.customers().list(RequestOptions.builder().setApiKey("sk_test_specific_tenant").build());
} catch (Exception e) {
    e.printStackTrace(); // Observe the exception during build()
}

Expected behavior

It should be possible to construct a StripeClient instance without a globally configured API key (i.e., with apiKey being null or not set on the builder) if the intention is to always provide the API key per request via RequestOptions.

The StripeClient.build() method should not throw an exception if no global API key is provided, and the responsibility for providing the API key should then fall entirely on the RequestOptions for each API call. If an API call is made without an API key in RequestOptions (and no global key is set), then an exception at that point would be appropriate.

Additional context

StripeClientBuilder.setApiKey does handle null apiKey so I don't get it why it's not accepted when the client is build.
