Make `nvm install` automatically use the installed version

Description of the new feature / enhancement
This will be consistent with the nvm-sh/nvm, which automatically uses the installed version. NVM4W does not do this automatically atm but gives a suggestion to nvm use x.x.x.
Scenario when this would be used?
For developers jumping across platforms, this is a subtle difference to notice/remember. One could do nvm install and get going with it, but didn't even realize it was pointing to the old version.
