Description

Change to way of getting the default version of the products to install

Motivation

Currently, hashi-up is using https://checkpoint.hashicorp.com/ to get the latest version of the products. As Vault is intentionally not integrated with Checkpoint, this cannot be used when installing Vault.

This PR introduces a new way to get a default version, by using a little versions.hcl file available in this source repository

Fixes #5

A little known URL that might help if you want to internalize the check is https://releases.hashicorp.com/index.json. You could then bring your favorite semver library and find the latest in that json. Works at the product level too (https://releases.hashicorp.com/vault/index.json)

@angrycub thanks for bringing that up, I'll have a look at it
