Current behavior

Invalid serialization of DocumentReferences: when retrieving a document which contains references to other documents, the returned JSON object contains strings like "com.google.firebase.firestore.DocumentReference@d2335ee5" instead of valid reference paths.

Expected behavior

The JSON serialization should produce a valid firestore reference.

Reproduction

Steps to reproduce

let someDocument = await FirebaseFirestore.getDocument({reference: `some/reference`});
let someData = someDocument.snapshot.data;
console.log(someData.someReference);
// what is logged: "com.google.firebase.firestore.DocumentReference@d2335ee5"
// what should be logged: `some/anotherreference`
