Use the `Info.plist` instead of the `xcodebuild` command to detect Xcode version #273

Currently we run a command to get the version of a specific Xcode installation. It's a lot faster to just parse and read the Info.plist inside the Xcode.app bundle instead 👍

I just wanted to write down my thoughts, I'm not implementing this currently

I was looking at the code recently too and was surprised that it did this. Guessing the info plist will have the same consistency of output.

version.plist would be even better, that also has the build number (not sure if we need it for xcode-install)
