If an equivilent shared dimension already exists, use it, else add d to shared dimensions.
Equivilent is same name and length.

@param group from this group, if null, use rootGroup
@param d     find equivilent shared dimension to this one.
@return equivilent shared dimension or d.
If an equivilent shared dimension already exists use it else add d to shared dimensions . Equivilent is same name and length .
