Description

With the announcement of LTS bazel releases, I imagine rules authors will want to test against the latest LTS version along with the other versions they're already testing against. It would be great if there was a flag for `USE_BAZEL_VERSION` to provide this.

Research direction

Start by locating the USE_BAZEL_VERSION handling and the existing version-selection tests in Bazelisk. Determine how the latest LTS release should be identified and what the new flag value should resolve to; done means the flag selects the latest LTS Bazel version and its behavior is covered by tests.
