Description

Description:
actions/setup-node, actions/setup-python, ruby/setup-ruby, and erlef/setup-beam all support reading from .tool-versions. It would be helpful to have such support consistently in all official setup actions.

Justification:
With over 18k stars and over 400 plugins, asdf is the most popular multi-language runtime manager. .tool-versions is becoming the de facto standard for pinning runtimes, package managers, and other development tools as most other standardized file formats support only one tool.
