Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
We have services in two places that include the same domain objects
We want to generate all the domain objects even if we don't have a service definition that uses them
Describe the solution you'd like
We slit out our service and domain definitions generating all the domain objects not not necessarily all the service definitions
we use the $ref to refer to the definitions in the other file
$ref: 'domain-core.yaml#/components/schemas/DomainObject
we'd like to be able to generate all the domain objects in that other file
Describe alternatives you've considered
We are considering generating a dummy service file that references all objects
Additional context
Our domain objects and services are used in multiple systems we'd like a single source of these domain objects even if they are only used internally by some systems or exposed in a different way to our main services.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the split-definition setup using the service file and domain-core.yaml, including the $ref to domain-core.yaml#/components/schemas/DomainObject. Trace how generation discovers components and define done as generating every domain object from the referenced file without requiring dummy service references.
