alignment with the case in which password field is autocomplete="new-password"

[Note:]
Before generate passwords, having the Fill Password context menu disabled made sense in the no logins scenario, since there were no passwords to be shown; but starting with generate passwords features even when I have no passwords saved for the target login, I will want to be able to generate. (e.g. the registration form case)
