ludovic would know what license this would have, if it comes from pcsc.

So the license should be the same as for pcsc-lite i.e. 3-clause BSD
license as in, the original,
https://github.com/LudovicRousseau/PCSC/blob/master/src/PCSC/winscard.h

I wrote this file because the corresponding strlcpy.c has no .h file.
I added a license in the strlcpycat.h file for pcsc-lite. See
https://github.com/LudovicRousseau/PCSC/blob/master/src/strlcpycat.h
