Issue Loading project with SubFlows

Table of Contents

Current Behavior

When I load a project, using the project tool, from a github, if a subflow has an installed node in the subflow it does not populate the node as an unknown node.

I was migrating an instance, so I was able to compare the two an notice that it removed the uninstalled node altogether.

Node that I experienced this issue with:
node-red-contrib-string v1.0.0
node-red-node-mongodb v0.2.5

Expected Behavior

I was expecting it to function like existing behavior when a non-default node that isn’t installed yet would populate as an unknown node.

Steps To Reproduce

Create a subflow utilizing a non default node.
Upload the project to github using projects.
Create a new node red server.
Download the project from github using projects.
Investigate the subflow. Unknown nodes not displayed
