contrib: output copyright in generate-seeds.py
What changed, and why it matters
This commit simply adds a standard copyright and license notice to the top of a generated source file. It is a legal/documentation change, not a security fix or code behavior change.
No security action needed. Treat as routine legal/licensing cleanup.
Security signals we found
No strong security signals were identified.
Evidence from the diff
The change modifies contrib/seeds/generate-seeds.py to emit a three-line copyright/license header into the generated chainparamsseeds.h file. No functional code, seed data, parsing logic, or output format is altered beyond adding comments.
