Change ETSI 2.4GHz maxpower from 30dBm to 20dBm in /etc/regdomain.xm

From ETSI EN 300 328 v2.1.1 (sections 4.3.1.2 and 4.3.2.2), the maximum RF output power if fixed to 20 dBm.

/etc/regdomain.xml currently allows 30 dBm, which is ten times too high.

Attached is a small patch reducing the ETSI 2.4GHz max output power from 30dBm to 20 dBm.

Regards,
Valentin

Bugzilla does not want to show the patch correctly; can you paste it inline?

It was probably due to the xml extension, I just re-uploaded the patch with another name.

Should validate if it is still correct and apply if so.
