Description

In addition to the `.exenv-version` file, asdf-elixir should also be able to read the Elixir version out of a `mix.exs` file in the current directory.

Research direction

Start by examining how the plugin currently reads the .exenv-version file, then compare that behavior with the mix.exs file in the current directory. The change is done when the Elixir version can be read from mix.exs as well as .exenv-version, while existing version detection continues to work.
