[REQUIRED] Environment info

firebase-tools: 9.6.1

Platform: macOS

[REQUIRED] Test case

The problem is exactly as described in this StackOverflow question
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/65214056/how-to-perform-large-deletes-in-the-firebase-realtime-database#comment118044022_65214056

firebase database:settings:set defaultWriteSizeLimit unlimited

[REQUIRED] Steps to reproduce

Change into a directory with firebase project and run
firebase database:settings:set defaultWriteSizeLimit unlimited

This will return an error.

Expected behaviour is that it results in an updated database setting.

[REQUIRED] Expected behavior

Command returns:

✔ Successfully set setting.
✔ For database instance hierfoods-staging
defaultWriteSizeLimit = ""unlimited""

[REQUIRED] Actual behavior

The command returns: "Error: Unexpected error fetching configs at defaultWriteSizeLimit"

Patching the library in ./database/settings.js on line 23 from

return input;

to

return JSON.stringify(input);

Makes the problem go away.
