Issue description

If the ''Use External Editor" setting is toggled on, scripts are open in the external editor when double clicking on them. This is expected.

But dragging and dropping scripts into the built-in script editor, or trying to open using the File > Open... menu option in the built-in editor also opens them in the external editor. From these actions it's clear that the user's intention is to use the built-in editor, so I believe this behavior is incorrect.

Steps to reproduce

Go to Editor Settings > Text Editor > Internal and Toggle ''Use External Editor" on and configure a valid external editor.
Create a new script (gdscript or C#, doesn't matter) and drop it into the built-in script editor area. Observe the external editor opens instead.

I had a problem with that feature too, but in a different resoult, should I make a new issue report? or add it to this? I think to make a new its better.
