**What type of PR is this?**
Optimisation
**What does this PR do? Why is it needed?**
Use `InitializeFromProtoUnsafeXXX` instead of `InitializeFromProtoXXX`
when possible. (@nisdas' change)
This change avoids useless copies.
The difference between these two methods is the latest copies the input
state. However, if the input state is guaranteed not to be modified
after the use of this function (and, in particular, if the input state
is not used at all after the use of this function), then copying it is
unnecessarry. ==> Using the "unsafe" method is fine in this case.
**Other notes for review**
As a reviewer, you should ensure that when the unsafe method is used,
then the input state is never modified after the use of the function.
This PR is much easier to review directly in VSCode, because it displays
more context by default.
