/**
 * This marker interface exists only to guarantee that JMockit can get the bytecode definition of
 * each Proxy class it creates through java.lang.reflect.Proxy.
 * If such a class is created before JMockit is initialized, its bytecode won't be stored in
 * JMockit's cache. And since the JDK uses an internal cache for proxy classes, it won't create a
 * new one, therefore not going through the ProxyRegistrationTransformer. So, by always implementing
 * this additional interface, we can guarantee a new proxy class will be created when JMockit first
 * requests it for a given interface.
