kernel: revert accidentally removed copyright header
What changed, and why it matters
This commit simply restores a copyright and explanatory comment block at the top of a source file. It is a documentation-only fix with no effect on program behavior, security, or network safety.
Recommended action
No security action needed. Treat as a normal non-security documentation fix.
Security signals we found
No strong security signals were identified.
Evidence from the diff
The patch re-adds a 13-line comment header to src/bitcoin-chainstate.cpp that had been accidentally deleted in a prior commit. No executable code, logic, dependencies, or build configuration are changed.
