Replaced @source (a supermarket's opening-hours page) with two proper sources: the University of Helsinki almanac office for the general Finnish holidays, and Åland's own flag law (landskapslag 1992:41 om Ålands flagga, §4) for the Åland-specific ones. Added Wikipedia's "Flaggdagar i Finland" as @attrib, since it helped confirm the flag day dates and their basis in that law.

That law only classifies 03-30 and 06-09 as official flag days - neither the law nor Wikipedia mention any work-free status. Marked both as observance accordingly, and added the third flag day the law defines but which was missing here (Ålands flaggas dag, last Sunday in April). Also renamed 06-09 from "Självstyrelsedagen" to "Ålands självstyrelsedag" to match the law's wording.

Lowercased Midsommarafton/Midsommardagen too - the almanac source capitalizes them only in its headings (like a title), but writes them lowercase in running text, matching standard Swedish orthography for non-proper-noun holiday names.
