gst-docs doesn't track subproject changes across reconfiguration

Sequence of events:

meson build
ninja -C build
meson configure build -Dbad=disabled
ninja -C build

Results in

...

|Project name: GStreamer manuals and tutorials

|Message: Building gst-plugins-good documentation

subprojects/gst-docs/meson.build:21:8: ERROR: Subproject "subprojects/gst-plugins-bad" required but not found.

This is ultimately due to the use of default_options to pass the list of projects into gst-docs to generate docs for which will not be updated on a configuration change.
