Twisted tracks the 'installed' reactor as a global variable.
(Actually, it does some module trickery, but the effect is similar.)
The default EpollReactor is buggy if it's created before a process is
forked, then used in the child.
See https://twistedmatrix.com/trac/ticket/4759#comment:17.
However, importing certain Twisted modules will automatically create and
install a reactor if one hasn't already been installed.
It's not normally possible to re-install a reactor.
Given the goal of launching workers with fork() to only import the code once,
this presents a conflict.
Our work around is to 'install' this ProxiedReactor which prevents Twisted
from creating and installing one, but which lets us replace the actual reactor
in use later on.
