Problem description

Some games need workarounds to be launched. The users who don't know about the wiki and the game workarounds may try to troubleshoot them on their own.

Feature description

Heroic Games Launcher should automatically apply the workarounds or open the wiki page for that game.

The workarounds for Rockstar Games should be renamed from "GTAV / RDR2" to "Rockstar Games" because they have more games than those 2.

This is currently a feature of heroic https://github.com/Heroic-Games-Launcher/known-fixes (there's an experimental feature in settings > advanced for it)

It just happens that the latest release of heroic cannot apply the rockstar known workaround since it was something new that doesn't support what's needed for rockstar.

For the next release, the rockstar fix will be applied automatically.

Will the wiki page name for Rockstar Games on the sidebar be changed?
