Subject: Implemented external "generate" function * this function essentially
 provides the same functionality as FunctionTransform with the addition of
 directly committing the result to the filesystem ** this is needed if one
 wants to generate doctype-containing transformations from inside a
 transformation as "write-file" is not able to infer the doctype of a given
 xalan::XalanNode pointer ** this is a integral limitation of (at least) XSLT
 1.0 as implemented in Apache Xalan *** a document can of course only have a
 single document type *** e.g. we can not include a doctype node in the result
 tree of FunctionTransform * implemented test case for FunctionGenerate *
 transformation "test.xsl" is shared between the FunctionTransform and
 FunctionGenerate test cases * modified README.md accordingly
