//! MAST forest: a collection of procedures represented as Merkle trees.
//!
//! # Deserializing from untrusted sources
//!
//! When loading a `MastForest` from bytes you don't fully trust (network, user upload, etc.),
//! use [`UntrustedMastForest`] instead of calling `MastForest::read_from_bytes` directly:
//!
//! ```ignore
//! use miden_core::mast::UntrustedMastForest;
//!
//! let forest = UntrustedMastForest::read_from_bytes(&bytes)?
//!     .validate()?;
//! ```
//!
//! For maximum protection against denial-of-service attacks from malicious input, use
//! [`UntrustedMastForest::read_from_bytes_with_budget`] which limits memory consumption:
//!
//! ```ignore
//! use miden_core::mast::UntrustedMastForest;
//!
//! // Budget limits pre-allocation sizes and total bytes consumed
//! let forest = UntrustedMastForest::read_from_bytes_with_budget(&bytes, bytes.len())?
//!     .validate()?;
//! ```
//!
//! This recomputes all node hashes and checks structural invariants before returning a usable
//! `MastForest`. Direct deserialization via `MastForest::read_from_bytes` trusts the serialized
//! hashes and should only be used for data from trusted sources (e.g. compiled locally).
