Update minimum height regulations over congested areas

Summary:
- Correct minimum height over congested areas from 150m to 300m
- Fix Emmen TMA sector boundaries (TMA 1: 2400 ft, not 3500 ft)
- Add SERA.5005 regulation references with hyperlinks

Air Law (10 - Luftrecht/Air Law/Droit aérien):

Updated Q75, Q92, and Q170 across all language versions (DE, EN,
FR) to reflect the correct SERA.5005(f)(1) minimum height over
congested areas: 300 m (1000 ft) above the highest obstacle
within a 600 m radius, not 150 m over 300 m radius.

Added direct links to EASA SERA.5005 regulation for reference.
Clarified distinction between congested-area rule (300m/600m)
and "elsewhere" rule (150m/150m) to prevent confusion.

Removed outdated references to BAZL/FOCA regulations and
replaced with current SERA standard applicable across Europe.

Flight Performance and Planning (30):

Corrected Q63 answer from B (3500 ft) to A (2400 ft) for the
Emmen TMA lower boundary between Cham and Hitzkirch.

Added detailed TMA sector table showing all Emmen sectors
(CTR 1-2, TMA 1-5) with their respective altitude limits.

Explanation now clarifies TMA sectors step up with distance
from airfield: TMA 1 at 2400 ft, TMA 3 at 3500 ft, etc.

Added reference to Swiss AIP ENR 2.1 and OpenAIP link for
verification.

Navigation (60):

Reformatted Q43 explanation for better readability (line
break before source citation). Added hyperlink to source PDF.

All changes ensure regulatory accuracy per current SERA and
Swiss AIP publications, with verifiable external references.
