GoG Divinity Original Sin: EE Linux save path

Concerns the Linux version of Divinity Original Sin: Enhanced Edition, downloaded from GoG through heroic. Running on SteamOS (Steam Deck).

On Linux, the game uses a non-conventional save data location, ~/'Larian Studios'. When running through heroic, this directory isn't created and all saved data is lost when the PC is rebooted.

I'm not entirely sure why this is, but it seems like using the start.sh script in the root directory for the game works correctly. Not sure if this is something that would be to be fixed on heroic's side? Maybe a different default executable or something.
