### Describe the bug

I am developing an educational application for Chromebook and Android mobile devices. On a phone or tablet, rtn-web-browser opens a Custom Tab embedded in the app as expected when the user signs in. On Chromebook, no browser window appears because Custom Tabs are not supported.

### Expected behavior

I expect a Chrome window to open to our Google sign-in URL.

### Reproduction steps

1. Create new React Native application and install aws-amplify, rtn-web-browser
2. Configure Google social provider according to https://docs.amplify.aws/gen1/react-native/build-a-backend/auth/add-social-provider/
3. Run on Chromebook (or Chromebook emulator - though I am not sure how replicable this is without a physical Chromebook)

### Code Snippet

```javascript
// Put your code below this line.
  const signInWithGoogle = async () => {
    if (connectedToInternet) {
      try {
        console.log("Federated sign in")
        signInWithRedirect({
          provider: 'Google',
        })
      } catch (error) {
        console.log('Error during Google login:', error);
        setIsSigningIn(false);
      }
    } else {
      console.log("Is offline");
    }
  }

...

const hubListener = (data: any) => {
    const { payload } = data;
    const { event } = payload;
    console.log("HUB HEARD EVENT: " + event)
    // + more listener code, removed
}

```


### Log output

<details>

```
// Put your logs below this line
Federated sign in
login.tsx:140 HUB HEARD EVENT: signInWithRedirect_failure
login.tsx:162 {"channel":"auth","payload":{"event":"signInWithRedirect_failure","data":{"error":{"name":"OAuthSignInException","recoverySuggestion":"Make sure Cognito Hosted UI has been configured correctly"}}},"source":"Auth","patternInfo":[]}
```

</details>


### aws-exports.js

_No response_

### Manual configuration

amplifyConfig.oauth.redirectSignIn = '[OUR_APP_PACKAGE_NAME]://';
amplifyConfig.oauth.redirectSignOut = '[OUR_APP_PACKAGE_NAME]://';

### Additional configuration

_No response_

### Mobile Device

HP Chromebook 11 G9 EE

### Mobile Operating System

ChromeOS

### Mobile Browser

Google Chrome

### Mobile Browser Version

135.0.7049.120

### Additional information and screenshots

I have been getting around the issue by adding the following at line 63 of ```node_modules/@aws-amplify/rtn-web-browser/src/apis/openAuthSessionAsync.ts``` (in the function openAuthSessionAndroid):
```
	} catch (e) {
		const [redirectUrl] = await Promise.all([
			Promise.race([
				// wait for app to redirect, resulting in a redirectUrl
				getRedirectPromise(redirectUrls),
				// wait for app to return some other way, resulting in null
				getAppStatePromise(),
			]),
			// open chrome tab
			Linking.openURL(url),
		]);

		if (redirectUrl) Linking.openURL(redirectUrl);

		return redirectUrl;
```
