beantownbabe 297d4fa53d Correct Infineon's contact to the real warm relationship 
Mckinley clarified directly: the actual contact to use for Infineon
is Sabine E. Herlitschka (CEO, Infineon Technologies Austria AG) - not
the cold-outreach reliability engineer. Peter knows her personally and
she already follows TXproducts on LinkedIn, making her the #1 easiest
contact in the whole PE set, not just a footnote.

No email/LinkedIn URL attached since this goes through an existing
relationship, not a cold channel. Preserved the original engineer
contact (Yuhong Chen) in the notes as a secondary/fallback technical
contact rather than discarding it. Synced from prospect_scout.json
into index.html's embedded array; verified via jsdom.
