Update Steam Deck Compatibility Rating

Currently Super Robot Wars V is rated 'Unplayable'. It should be changed to 'Playable'. After playing it for 7 operations and about 4 hours, the cheatsheet during the dialogue is the only issue I've had. All types of video scenarios and game and menu audio, text size, etc work perfectly out of the box on the Steam Deck.

Given Valve is in the process of courting Japanese market and game devs with the Steam Deck, it is in Valve's interest to accurately reflect game playability of Japanese developed games on Steam Deck to broaden sales of games (for devs) and the number of titles playable on Steam Deck (for general consumers)... particularly one like the SRW series where SRW V is limited to the SE Asia market on Steam.
