Terragrunt fails when tfenv install is run

[mazay]

Describe the bug

Terragrunt can't parse terraform --version output when desired Terrraform version is not yet installed in the running envirenment.

Steps To Reproduce

1. Have a Terragrunt module with .terraform-version file
2. Make sure the Terraform version is not yet installed - tfenv uninstall
3. Run any Terragrunt command and observe the following debug output:

$ terragrunt init --terragrunt-log-level debug --terragrunt-debug

14:50:46.743 ERROR  Unable to determine underlying exit code, so Terragrunt will exit with error code 1

The issue is reproducible starting with TG versions 0.57.12.

Expected behavior

With versions 0.57.11 and older tfenv installs the desired TF version and TG can properly parse the output.

Nice to haves

• Terminal output
• Screenshots

Versions

• Terragrunt version: 0.68.4
• OpenTofu/Terraform version: any
• Environment details (Ubuntu 20.04, Windows 10, etc.): any

Additional context

We use tfenv and tgenv for maintaining our TF and TG versions, we heavily rely on this in our deployments pipelines as module A can depend on module B and they can use different TF versions. With tfenv we can easily and seamlessly install required TF version when running terragrunt run-all commands, unfortunately, this functionality is broken now.

It looks like is an issue with the parsing of the Terraform version when tfenv downloads it

I believe that I'm seeing the same behavior with tofuenv:
