Major version with wildcard takes considerable amount of time

[limdor]

When running bazelisk version takes in my machine 19 seconds when specifying 5.x in the .bazelversion file. When running bazelisk version takes in my machine 0.05 seconds when specifying 5.2.0 in the .bazelversion file. (the equivalent to 5.x at the moment of creating this ticket.

This makes in practice not usable the usage of .x because it takes too much time.

I tried that on Linux with bazelisk 1.12.0

.bazelversion
5.x
