Fix Quenya ⟨ch⟩ pronunciation

Appendix E of The Lord of the Rings describes it as “the sound heard in
bach (in German or Welsh)”; I think that means [χ], not [x] (voiceless
uvular rather than velar fricative), and out of the base1 phonemes,
[[X]] is closer to that than [[x]]. (The German phonemes redefine [[x]]
to be closer to [[X]], if I’m not mistaken, but I don’t think we need
that. Note also that we actually need [[x]] for Quenya ⟨ht⟩.)
