Bug#985797: Hyperrogue creates hyperrogue.{ini, log} in current directory instead of .hyperrogue.{ini, log} in home directory

Package: hyperrogue
Version: 11.3o-1
Severity: normal

Contrary to what's claimed on the manpage, hyperrogue reads and creates
hyperrogue.ini and hyperrogue.log in the current working directory,
instead of ~/.hyperrogue.ini and ~/.hyperrogue.log.

Either the manpage is wrong, or hyperrogue was misconfigured in the
build. I'd prefer the latter, since it doesn't make sense for per-game
configuration/logs to be stored in the current working directory.
