Description of the bug:
The docs say SDK v26.2 is pointing at API 19.1, but in testing I am getting errors saying requests are missing the required field contains_eu_political_advertising on all campaigns.
Composer shows `googleapis/gax-php v1.25.0 is installed, which I'm guessing points at v1.19.2
Git history on googleapis/gax-php shows they never released v1.19.2, they went from 1.19.1 to 1.20.0 https://github.com/googleapis/gax-php/releases?page=5
Your composer.json specifies "google/gax": "^1.19.1", which is equivalent to >=1.19.1 <2.0.0
So I think this is a bug with your composer.json where you need to pin gax-php to a compatible version range for each SDK release, for example Tilde versioning would work: ~1.19.1 is equivalent to >=1.19.1 <1.20.0
Either that or this a bug with googleapis/gax-php where they broke backwards compatibility.
