Renamed EditorResourcePreviewGenerator.should_generate_small_preview() to generate_small_preview_automatically()

Added can_generate_small_preview() so the generator uses generate() or generate_from_path() if it returns true
Added can_generate_small_preview() and generate_small_preview_automatically() to the scripting languages
