asdf install looks for exact versions

Without an exact version, we get an error:

$ asdf install
Trying to update node-build... ok
node-build: definition not found: 22
failed to run install callback: exit status 2

`asdf install` looks for [exact versions](https://asdf-vm.com/guide/getting-started.html#_5-install-a-version)

Without an exact version, we get an error:

```
$ asdf install
Trying to update node-build... ok
node-build: definition not found: 22
failed to run install callback: exit status 2
```

I think a question I have is whether this is a thing we want in general - at the moment any v22 is acceptable.

Does this change mean we need to update this more often? I worry that it'll mean our users are more often running a version that doesn't match - do they get an error when this happens?

See #186 @duncanjbrown had the same issue. Apparently asdf philosophy is to only specify exact versions?

Gonna close this for now - we can add a .tool-versions back in later if needed?
