obj: the object being generated

Remarks

This is called by GoXmlWriter.DefineObject. If IdAttributeUsedForSharedObjects is true, this first associates an identifier with the given obj by calling GoXmlWriter.GoXmlWriter.MakeShared This method then calls GenerateDefinitions on the InheritsFromTransformer, to allow another specific transformer to implement this behavior, or else calls GoXmlWriter.GoXmlWriter.InvokeGenerateDefinitions, to allow this TransformerType's base Type to provide a default behavior.
