[Bug]: Subcharts Directory Structure not working with helm-docs

Current Behavior

When using helm-docs to generate documentation for a Helm chart with subcharts, the tool expects(as per my understanding) the subcharts to be placed inside a charts directory within the main chart directory. However, the directory structure in our project is organized differently:

helm/
|- subchart-a/
|- subchart-b/
|- main/
    |- charts/   <-- This directory doesn't exist in our structure
    |- chart.yaml

But it's throwing

 Dependency with path "../subchart-a" was not found. Dependency values will not be included. 
 Dependency with path "../subchart-b" was not found. Dependency values will not be included. 

Expected Behavior

We expect helm-docs to support our directory structure where subcharts are located directly within the parent chart directory, without the need for a separate charts directory. The chart.yaml file in the main chart properly references the subcharts:

dependencies:
  - name: subchart-a
    version: 0.1.0
    repository: file://../subchart-a
