Code Review

This pull request introduces comprehensive documentation for the Gemini Live API as a new skill and adds a cross-reference in the existing Gemini API skill documentation. The new documentation is detailed and covers a wide range of features. However, I've identified several issues in the code examples, particularly in the Quick Start sections, which could hinder users. These include significant bugs in the Python example and an incomplete JavaScript example. Additionally, there are minor inconsistencies across various code snippets, such as missing necessary imports, which I've also pointed out.
