Update Google Gemini Chat Model node to support new grounding feature

The idea is:

Google just released a cool new feature called grounding that gives Gemini access to Google search, which is awesome. Please update the Google Gemini Chat Model node to support this new feature.

My use case:

Academic assistant.

I think it would be beneficial to add this because:

Grounding solves several problems:

Access to recent data (e.g. who won the 2024 MLB world series. Gemini doesn’t know the answer, but Google search does.
Reduces hallucinations by citing specific sources.

Any resources to support this?

Are you willing to work on this?

I’m not a developer, sorry.

I am not a node developer, and not necessarily wanting to build a custom version, but I believe I have either completed or given a good start to someone that wants to test adding grounding in a custom build and submit a pull request.

This would be awesome! Could easily cut the API usage for google search with this.
