Well, I think the security issue here is just to allow used_atom and valid_atom
to be correctly mapped through atom_type. We don’t want the coder to forget to
update "enum atom_type" when adding new atoms to valid_atom in the future.
So maybe Junio's suggestion is reasonable, we delete the member atom_type in
valid_atom, but maintain the connection between atom_type and valid_atom items
by specifying atom_type as array coordinates.

Yes, atom_value, valid_atom, used_atom, It may be difficult to read for the
first time. Maybe unifying them is a good direction for the future.
