Standalone object creation is not a pattern we want to encourage, as objects not assigned to the object tree are immediately unreachable and subject to garbage collection. This mirrors the same change made to the REST SDK usage docs in 3ddb9d6, as a result of the PR comment [1].

Remove the "Creating standalone objects" section and the "Publishing with client-generated IDs" subsection (which showed creating a standalone object). The client-generated IDs section now only shows the atomic batch example that creates and assigns in one operation, with an important note that objects should be assigned to the tree as part of the same batch.
