Research direction

Reproduce the issue by installing dfx v0.21.0, uninstalling the default v0.22.0, and running dfx as described in the issue. Inspect the default-version selection and make the behavior use the latest installed version when the default is absent; done means dfx runs successfully after that sequence.

Description

I installed v.0.21.0 of dfx and uninstall the current default version (v0.22.0), after that when I try to use dfx that gave error. I think if no installation of default dfxvm, dfxvm should use the most latest installed version.
