   `readObject` in `ListOrderedMap`, `ListOrderedSet` and `SetUniqueList` 
restores the backing collection and the parallel structure that records 
iteration order / enforces uniqueness (`insertOrder`, `setOrder`, and the dedup 
`set`) as two independent stream fields and never checks the two agree, unlike 
the constructors which derive the order/dedup structure from the backing 
collection so they always match. Found while auditing the custom `readObject` 
paths against the invariant the constructors hold: a tampered or hand-built 
stream whose two fields disagree deserializes into a decorator whose state is 
impossible through the API. A `SetUniqueList` can be made to hold duplicates in 
its backing list, and a `ListOrderedMap`/`ListOrderedSet` can be made to carry 
an order list that names keys/elements absent from the backing collection (or 
repeats one), so `keyList()`/iteration surface phantom or duplicate entries 
while `size()` reports the backing count. Each `readObject` now re-checks t
 hat the order/dedup structure is a duplicate-free match for the backing 
collection and throws `InvalidObjectException` otherwise, mirroring the 
constructor contract. Existing serialized forms still load (the version-4 
compatibility tests pass); only streams carrying inconsistent data are 
rejected. Regression tests added in `ListOrderedMapTest`, `ListOrderedSetTest` 
and `SetUniqueListTest`.
   
   Before you push a pull request, review this list:
   
   - [x] Read the [contribution guidelines](CONTRIBUTING.md) for this project.
   - [ ] Read the [ASF Generative Tooling 
Guidance](https://www.apache.org/legal/generative-tooling.html) if you use 
Artificial Intelligence (AI).
   - [ ] I used AI to create any part of, or all of, this pull request. Which 
AI tool was used to create this pull request, and to what extent did it 
contribute?
   - [x] Run a successful build using the default 
[Maven](https://maven.apache.org/) goal with `mvn`; that's `mvn` on the command 
line by itself.
   - [x] Write unit tests that match behavioral changes, where the tests fail 
if the changes to the runtime are not applied. This may not always be possible, 
but it is a best practice.
   - [x] Write a pull request description that is detailed enough to understand 
what the pull request does, how, and why.
   - [x] Each commit in the pull request should have a meaningful subject line 
and body. Note that a maintainer may squash commits during the merge process.
