libcacard: Spelling and grammar fixes in documentation
* it's -> its * it's -> it is (that's no fix, but makes future checks easier) * this functions -> this function * replacable -> replaceable * reader's -> readers * logins into -> logs into v2: Also replace 'aid' by 'AID' (thanks to Peter Maydell for this hint). v3: Fix sentence (contributed by Alon Levy / Robert Relyea).
