Utilize specific version of Azure CLI

The Azure CLI by default will always install the most recent version, without the option to specify a specific version of the Azure CLI to install.

Utilizing a specific version of the Azure CLI

To utilize a specific version of the Azure CLI you will need to first install the most recent version of the CLI and then downloading and setting a specific version.

This article assumes you are utilizing the CircleCI Azure CLI Orb.

Example config: 

The following commands first install the CLI and then install and set the version 2.18.0 to be used.

- azure-cli/install
- run: apt-cache policy azure-cli | sudo apt-get install --allow-downgrades azure-cli=2.18.0-1~stretch

The only adjustment that needs to be made to the above is adjusting 2.18.0-1~stretch to point to the version you want to utilize.
