I confirm that after replacing `prefix-command-update` with
`prefix-command-preserve-state` (replacing since the latter calls the
former), now `C-u C-x p p f lisp/international/emoji-labels.el` works ok
(without C-u it can't find this non-registered file).

I tested this with such test command and there are no problems:

```
(defun test (arg1 arg2)
  (interactive
   (list (progn
           (message "%S" default-directory)
           (read-string "1: ")
           (message "%S" default-directory))
         (progn
           (message "%S" default-directory)
           (read-string "2: ")
           (message "%S" default-directory))))
  (message "%S" default-directory))
```

`C-x p p M-x test RET` prints only the new directory.

However, I found a problem with `C-x p 4 p`.  To fix it,
`project-other-window-command` should be completely rewritten to:

```
(defun project-other-window-command ()
  (interactive)
  (other-window-prefix)
  (set-transient-map (make-composed-keymap project-prefix-map
                                           project-other-window-map)))
```

plus a small fix that I don't know how to generalize:

```
diff --git a/lisp/window.el b/lisp/window.el
index ab7dd5ced12..52ba407d9c8 100644
--- a/lisp/window.el

     (add-hook 'post-command-hook postfun)
```

Then everything works as before and even better.

It's possible to create another general command that will read arbitrary
directory, but this command is project-specific with `project-prompter`.

`project-switch-project` really should be renamed to `other-project-prefix`
like other similar prefix commands.  Here is the latest version without
much changes:

```
(defun other-project-prefix (dir)
  (interactive (list (funcall project-prompter)))
  (if (symbolp project-switch-commands)
      (let ((default-directory dir))
        (call-interactively project-switch-commands))
    (let* ((echofun (lambda () "[switch-project]"))
           (postfun (lambda () (remove-hook
                                'prefix-command-echo-keystrokes-functions
                                echofun))))
      (setq next-default-directory dir)
      (message (project--keymap-prompt))
      (add-hook 'prefix-command-echo-keystrokes-functions echofun)
      (prefix-command-preserve-state)
      (set-transient-map project-prefix-map nil postfun))))
```
