Add protondb-decky-eXtended to Plugin Store

ProtonDB Badges eXtended retrieves ProtonDB ratings via the ProtonDB API and overlays them as a tappable badge on each game’s library page & store. Tapping the badge opens the corresponding ProtonDB page.

This plugin is an actively maintained, fork of the original protondb-decky plugin, which is archived/not maintained anymore.
Compared to the original/archived protondb-decky plugin:

  • It adds a badge to the game store/pages, so that users can see compatibility within the store. (on Steam Deck)
  • Adds more locations to place the badges.
  • Adds a submit button, allowing users to submit ProtonDB reports directly from Game Mode, from their library, without opening a browser.
  • Options to enable/disable the badge on the store and or library.

Examples:

@OMGDuke Would you be okay with @bschelst using the "ProtonDB Badges" plugin name and taking over maintainership from the Decky side of things? This would help greatly with users being able to smoothly update to the latest fixes.

@bschelst Are you open to making the following changes?

  1. Change the repo name to protondb-decky
  2. Change the name (ProtonDB Badges), description (Display tappable ProtonDB badges on your game pages), and image (fix the repo name) in plugin.json
  3. Change the name (protondb-decky), version (1.1.1 or 1.2.0), description (Display tappable ProtonDB badges on your game pages), and repository references in package.json
  4. Change all other references to use the original "ProtonDB Badges" name
  5. Update the existing ProtonDB Badges submodule to your repo rather than creating a new one

Hi,

Done.
Sorry, I'm new to this integration, so still learning a lot.

Please rebase from main so you aren't building other plugins in the pipeline, as well.

@bschelst Perfect! I've deployed to the testing store.

@Dukeman330 "Looks good" is not an acceptable testing report nor was the plugin on the testing store at the time of your review. Please only test plugins available on the testing store and use the format on our wiki in your comment: https://wiki.deckbrew.xyz/en/user-guide/testing
