/**
 * Every process has a RemoteWorkerService which does the actual spawning of
 * RemoteWorkerChild instances. The RemoteWorkerService creates a "Worker
 * Launcher" thread at initialization on which it creates a
 * RemoteWorkerServiceChild to service spawn requests. The thread is exposed as
 * RemoteWorkerService::Thread(). A new/distinct thread is used because we
 * (eventually) don't want to deal with main-thread contention, content
 * processes have no equivalent of a PBackground thread, and actors are bound to
 * specific threads.
 *
 * (Disclaimer: currently most RemoteWorkerOps need to happen on the main thread
 * because the main-thread ends up as the owner of the worker and all
 * manipulation of the worker must happen from the owning thread.)
