GTA 5 Proton Hotfix

Announced by Valve's Pierre-Loup Griffais on Bluesky, a new Proton Hotfix was deployed yesterday that fixes some small issues that have appeared on the Steam Deck. After another update, THE FINALS was broken again, and there was some issue with the offline mode for the new GTA 5 Enhanced Edition. We did try GTA 5's new version and didn't have any issues, but it appears some people were stuck on the launcher and couldn't get into the game (per a GitHub issue report). So, the new update fixes both of these!

The new update for the Proton Hotfix branch should automatically download when you open your Steam Deck.
