'bst build <elem>' does not assemble all required elements in some circumstances
## Summary
[//]: # (Summarize the bug encountered concisely)
There seems to be a problem with how the build pipeline is constructed when a workspace is open on a depedency of the element I requested a build for. `bst build` seems to just build up to the workspace element and stops there (exiting with 0 too). It's a little hard to explain - see 'Steps to reproduce'. I've tested this with v1.2.3 and current head of master (1.3.0).
## Steps to reproduce
[//]: # (How one can reproduce the issue - this is very important)
I've set up a project that demonstrates the issue here: https://gitlab.com/matthew-yates/bst-workspace-issue
```
$ bst workspace open elem1.bst
$ bst build elem3.bst
```
This should build `elem1.bst` and `elem3.bst`, but only elem1.bst is built and `elem3.bst` is left in a `'waiting'` state.
## What is the current bug behavior?

```
So despite asking `elem3.bst` to be built, it's still not built. But if i call `bst build elem3.bst` again, it is built.
Presumably because the strong cache key for `elem1.bst` is now resolved.

## What is the expected correct behavior?
[//]: # (What you should see instead)
That I only have to invoke 'bst build elem3.bst' once.
## Relevant logs and/or screenshots
[//]: # (Paste any relevant logs - please use code blocks ``` to format console output, logs, and code as it's hard to read otherwise. You can also add a Snippet and link it here. Check the markdown giude on Gitlab for further tips)
See above.
## Possible fixes
[//]: # (If you can, link to the line of code that might be responsible for the problem)
No idea - Element._update_state() looks suspicious though.
## Other relevant information
[//]: # (Add the BuildStream version. Substitute below the "x" by "1", "2" or the right version. Add more than one version if necessary)
