Description of the bug

Environment variable GIT_CLIFF__BUMP__INITIAL_TAG is not respected by git-cliff --bumped-version

I have projects with are versionn with a v-Prefix i.e. v0.2.0 and some with 0.2.0. most projects are with v-Perfix, i tried to set the initial to to e.g. v0.2.0 hand hopped that the intial tag would be v0.2.0.

Steps To Reproduce

mkdir upstream
cd upstream
git init
git switch --create main
echo a > text.txt
git add text.txt
git commit -m "fix: test"
cd ..
git clone upstream cloned
cd cloned

OK: i expect 0.1.0

git-cliff --bumped-version
 WARN  git_cliff > "cliff.toml" is not found, using the default configuration.
 WARN  git_cliff_core::release > No releases found, using 0.1.0 as the next version.
0.1.0

NOK: i expect 0.2.0

if I add a cliff.toml in the repository then the varialbe is respected, but not with the default in place
