Generic editor pollutes other editors with a duplicate "Find References" menu entry

The generic editor adds an extra (disabled) menu entry for "Find references" in the context menu of other editors. As an example I attached a screenshot of the context menu of an Xtext editor with a duplicated "Find References".

The duplicate menu contribution is defined in the `org.eclipse.ui.genericeditor` plugin.
