fix(ZMSKVR-352): tighten mail template formatting

[ThomasAFink]

Summary

• Unbolds service (Leistung) links in confirmation, reminder, and activation mails
• Normalizes separators to a single Geviertstrich (—) instead of ——
• Reduces excess spacing under “Termin aktivieren”, under the location block, under preparation bullet lists, and around separators
• Stacked on feat(ZMSKVR-1557): add estimated duration to confirmation and reminder mails #2992 (ZMSKVR-1557); retarget to next after that merges

Pull Request Checklist (Feature Branch to next):

• Ich habe die neuesten Änderungen aus dem next Branch in meinen Feature-Branch gemergt.
• Relevante Tests wurden mit zmsautomation ausgeführt.
• Das Code-Review wurde abgeschlossen.
• Fachliche Tests wurden durchgeführt und sind abgeschlossen.
• Ich habe erforderliche Dokumentation im Ordner docs hinzugefügt.

Test plan

• Run bin/migrate --update
• Preview Aktivierung mail: less space under “Termin aktivieren”, single —, services not bold
• Preview Bestätigung mail: less space under Ort and under bullets, single —, services not bold
• Preview Erinnerung mail: same formatting expectations
• Spot-check a customized template still updates (or is intentionally left alone if legacy layout)

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Improvements
  • Updated confirmation, pre-confirmation, and reminder emails with cleaner formatting.
  • Standardized separators using a single em dash.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The PR adds two transactional SQL migrations that normalize three mail templates. The updates remove service-link emphasis, standardize em-dash separators and break spacing, reduce activation-link spacing, and use guarded replacements.

Changes

Mail template normalization

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Transaction scope and service-link cleanup zmsbackend/migrations/91785035201-format-mail-templates-spacing-and-dashes.sql, zmsbackend/migrations/91785035202-format-mail-templates-ascii-hyphen-separators.sql	Both migrations run transactional, guarded updates against the three named templates. Service-link <strong> wrappers are removed while preserving links and request-group names.
Separator normalization zmsbackend/migrations/91785035201-format-mail-templates-spacing-and-dashes.sql, zmsbackend/migrations/91785035202-format-mail-templates-ascii-hyphen-separators.sql	Whole-line --- separators and duplicate em dashes are converted to single em dashes. Surrounding whitespace and line endings are preserved.
Spacing normalization and final cleanup zmsbackend/migrations/91785035201-format-mail-templates-spacing-and-dashes.sql, zmsbackend/migrations/91785035202-format-mail-templates-ascii-hyphen-separators.sql	Break spacing around em dashes and below the “Termin aktivieren” link is reduced. A final replacement handles remaining duplicate em dashes.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to ccb63

The migrations improve mail spacing and separators, but some valid template variants may be skipped because the update guards are narrower than the replacement rules, leaving inconsistent formatting. This is a bounded correctness risk that should have explicit owner awareness or follow-up.
