Apple Ads API v5 sunsetting prompts migration to new platform

The author's team developed a new Node.js SDK wrapper to address this, offering a comprehensive set of tools that mirror Apple's official Node SDK operations, including both read and write capabilities for campaigns, keywords, and reporting.
