Describe the bug

When Hubsite is configured to limit the people who can associate sites with the hub, SP REST call doesn't return the hubsite information from /_api/HubSites, even if user has access there.

Steps to reproduce

1. Go to SP Admin site collection, select 'Active sites'
2. Select hubsite, set 'People who can associate sites with this hub' with any user in Hub settings.
3. Use different account that has an access to configured hubsite and execute GET request to '/_api/HubSites' endpoint.
4. Previously configured hubsite is not included in the result set.

Expected behavior

Information about the hubsite should be retrieved, regardless the user is a part of 'People who can associate sites with this hub' set.

Environment details (development & target environment)

Tested with SPFx 1.11, but the problem is an API.
