Bug Description
When adding the xenial64 vagrant box via Atlas, you will always get the latest box version, even if you specify an older version.
So,
vagrant box add ubuntu/xenial64
and
vagrant box add ubuntu/xenial64 --box-version SOMEOTHERVERSION
will both install the latest version.
This may surprise some users or cause issues for build pipelines that would expect to be able to retrieve older versions using Atlas.
As per <https:/

This has been in queue for a while. a decision was reached recently that rather than change this functionality, we are going to redesign our image versions -- going forward, we won't "publish" new versions to vagranthub. We'll keep the same pointing to current, and create a release that will always ensure "latest" is pulled.
We'll also update the documentation for the boxes on the vagranthub site to ensure that past and current state are clearly defined for users.
