Fix Shim Path After asdf Upgrade

While doing brew install groff, Homebrew decided to upgrade every last thing it knows about on my machine, including asdf.

asdf has undergone some big recent changes, including a rewrite in Go.

I noticed that asdf wasn't picking up my specified tool versions. I tried an asdf reshim, but that didn't do the trick. Someone else wrote that asdf seems broken after homebrew upgrade which gave some hints and pointed me to some interesting GitHub issues.

Additionally, I noticed when opening a fresh terminal session the following error from zsh:

/Users/jbranchaud/.zshrc:.:225: no such file or directory: /usr/local/opt/asdf/libexec/asdf.sh

That directory and file is gone. So, how does asdf now want you to configure its path with zsh? Revisiting their updated docs, I can see that the instead of sourcing that shell script, we should now export shims to the path:

# . /usr/local/opt/asdf/libexec/asdf.sh
export PATH="${ASDF_DATA_DIR:-$HOME/.asdf}/shims:$PATH"

Updating my .zshrc to the above and then reloading did the trick. My tool versions are registering now.
