[In App Messaging] Ability to refetch campaigns as target event based parameters change

[Ethan1983]

What feature would you like to see?

An API to force fetch campaigns from remote server (instead of using the cached ones) as and when a campaign's target event based parameters change due to client actions like updating a user property.

How would you use it?

• Logged in user could change favourite team using FirebaseAnalytics.getInstance().setUserProperty from Seahawks to 49ers
• As this user property is updated, user's current session should automatically be eligible for all 49ers campaign and they shouldn't wait for app restart etc.
• Note: UserProperty is just one such target criteria, User Audience, User Segments too are applicable for these dynamic user preference changes.

I couldn't figure out how to label this issue, so I've labeled it for a human to triage. Hang tight.

While I'm hopeful, also aware that proposed APIs like these could be abused by apps and that goes against the general Firebase philosophy of reducing network data usage and conserving battery life.

If it comes to that, please consider updating the documentation to clarify when campaigns are exactly fetched and if apps can/can't rely on that for any instantaneous updates.
