from error to info level.

API for ads.
23.4.0
2024‑09‑30
Ad load failures now invoke a logcat message that says ad failed
to load in the failure's stack trace. The stack trace logs this
message as an error, but doesn't imply a crash. Consult Debug common error logging messages
to interpret common ad loading failures. If you see a recurring error
related to ad serving that’s not documented, share the stack trace with
Mobile Ads SDK support.
Native Mediation adapters: Deprecated loadNativeAd
and loadRtbNativeAd() in favor of loadNativeAdMapper() and loadRtbNativeAdMapper().
Adapters should migrate to using these new load methods and related
objects.
Removed the deprecated MobileAds.enableSameAppKey() API
and updated the alternative method MobileAds.putPublisherFirstPartyIdEnabled()
to return a boolean about whether the control persistence is successful or
not.
Native Ads:
Removed AdLoader.forUnifiedNativeAd(). Use
AdLoader.forNativeAd() instead.
Removed AdLoader.forCustomTemplateAd(). Use
AdLoader.forCustomFormatAd() instead.

QueryInfo.generate()
must pass an ad format.
AdManagerAdRequest.Builder methods inherited from its
parent can now be chained together to build an object from a single call.
This required a change in the inheritance structure such that
AdManagerAdRequest.Builder
no longer inherits from AdRequest.Builder.
Mediation: The return value for
Adapter.getVersionInfo() and
Adapter.getSDKVersionInfo() changed from type
com.google.android.gms.ads.mediation.VersionInfo
to com.google.android.gms.ads.VersionInfo. We recommend
adapters return the new type since
com.google.android.gms.ads.mediation.VersionInfo is
deprecated.
