Discover keyword candidates from Google's own related-ideas expansion: fans each seed into the terms Google associates with it, each scored on demand (real average monthly searches) and paid-auction difficulty, geo-scoped to the account. Use for cold-start expansion or to widen a silo theme; for terms the account already has history on, trust getSearchTerms over these numbers. Candidates the account already bids on are marked alreadyBidding, not hidden. ~5-8s per call.

Type: read-only. Never changes the account.
