## Unreleased

* Added:
* Opt-in portable backups for cross-platform Windows and Wine/Proton saves.
When enabled via the new `backup.semanticPaths` setting (off by default),
Windows save locations are stored portably so that a backup made on Windows
can be restored into a Wine/Proton prefix on Linux (and vice versa) without
per-game redirects.
New restore settings support this: `restore.winePrefix` (global fallback
prefix), `restore.preferredWinePrefixes` (per-game prefix, Wine user, and
drive mappings), and `restore.driveMappings` (manual drive-letter mappings).
On Linux, restoring a portable backup will prompt for a Wine prefix when one
cannot be determined automatically.
