fix(ui): reconnect Google One Tap accounts through Google OAuth

[akshitkrnagpal]

Description

Fixes #9689: "UserProfile reconnect sends google_one_tap instead of oauth_google for Google One Tap accounts".

Reconnect now normalizes google_one_tap to oauth_google, allowing disconnected Google One Tap accounts to reconnect through regular Google OAuth. Session reverification remains in place, and the retry uses the normalized strategy.

I've been using this patch, and it fixed the issue for me. I'm open to a different approach; this is the fix that has worked for me.

To verify, reconnect a disconnected Google One Tap account in UserProfile and complete session reverification. The request should use oauth_google and redirect to Google.
