Unsound alternative to ~ilc[serialize-read]~/

The ~c[unsound-read] command is like ~ilc[serialize-read] except that it does
not take ~ilc[state].  This means it works even in ordinary ~il[defconst]
events, which avoids the performance penalty of using ~ilc[make-event] to read
files; see ~ilc[serialize-in-books].

As its name suggests, ~c[unsound-read] is not sound and it can easily be used
to prove ~c[nil]; see below.  Because of this, we don't build it into ACL2; to
use it you must first include the ~c[serialize/unsound-read] book, e.g.,

~bv[]
  (include-book \"serialize/unsound-read\" :dir :system :ttags (:unsound-read))
~ev[]

and accept the ~c[:unsound-read] trust tag.

General form:
~bv[]
  (unsound-read filename
                [:hons-mode {:always, :never, :smart}]
                [:verbose   {t, nil}])
    -->
  obj
~ev[]

The arguments are as in ~ilc[serialize-read].
~/

EXPLANATION OF UNSOUNDNESS.

The logical problem with ~c[unsound-read] is that, since it is a function, it
is expected to satisfy the functional equality axiom schema, namely,

~bv[]
  (equal (unsound-read-fn filename hons-mode verbosep)
         (unsound-read-fn filename hons-mode verbosep))
~ev[]

But we can violate this property by modifying the file system between calls of
~c[unsound-read].  For instance, here is a proof of nil that is carried out in
~c[serialize/serialize-tests.lisp] by exploiting this fact.

~bv[]
  (local
   (encapsulate
    ()
    ;; Write NIL to test.sao
    (make-event
     (let ((state (serialize-write \"test.sao\" nil)))
       (value '(value-triple :invisible))))

    ;; Prove that test.sao contains NIL.
    (defthm lemma-1
      (equal (unsound-read \"test.sao\") nil)
      :rule-classes nil)

    ;; Write T to test.sao
    (make-event
     (let ((state (serialize-write \"test.sao\" t)))
       (value '(value-triple :invisible))))

    ;; Prove that test.sao contains T.
    (defthm lemma-2
      (equal (unsound-read \"test.sao\") t)
      :rule-classes nil)

    ;; Arrive at our contradiction.
    (defthm qed
      nil
      :rule-classes nil
      :hints((\"Goal\"
              :use ((:instance lemma-1)
                    (:instance lemma-2))
              :in-theory (disable (unsound-read-fn)))))))
~ev[]

In short, if you want to use ~c[unsound-read] soundly, then you need to make
sure the files you are reading aren't changing out from under you.")
