Project clears permanently when path to project is temporarily unavailable in the Projects list

1. Open or create a project in Unity Hub whose location is on an external drive
2. Quit Unity Hub
3. Unplug the external drive that stores the project
4. Launch Unity Hub
5. Observe the Project list
Expected result: The project is in the Projects list (Once trying to open it would display that the path is not found)
Actual result: The project disappeared from the Projects list
Reproducible with: Unity Hub 3.12.1
Reproducible on: Windows 11(24H2), macOS (24.4.0) (by the user)
Not reproducible on: No other environment tested
Note: Once the external drive is plugged in again, the project does not appear in the Projects list

We should have the CHOICE of what appears in the list and what doesn't. Adding an auto-scan to populate the list is a bad design decision. Leave the projects in the list until the user decides to remove it, even if the path is broken.

If this is "by design", then it's a horrible design.

Resolution Note (fix version 3.13.0):
This was by design, but in Hub 3.13.0, Hub should scan the default project directory for projects and show them in the list without the need to re-add them manually.
