Just code it in manually, as far as I know there is no way for the
reverse engineering to infer that the sequence `GEN_TABLE_ID` would
belong to a specific table (and if there were any such inference by
name, I'd guess that `SEQ_TABLE_ID` would sooner work). However I
usually do not reverse engineer at all, so don't take this as the final
answer.

Note that it would probably yield better performance to use a trigger
(or Firebird 3 identity column) to generate the id, and mark the id as
`@GeneratedValue(strategy = GenerationType.IDENTITY)` instead.
