Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

The doc string of the nvda_eoaProxy is self-explanatory.

"""NVDA proxy process for Ease of Access in Windows Vista/7.
This version of Ease of Access terminates ATs on every desktop switch,
but this is bad for NVDA, as state is lost and cleanup isn't performed.
This process runs while NVDA is running so EoA knows NVDA is running.
However, when EoA kills this process, it doesn't affect NVDA.
"""

Describe the solution you'd like

Remove the EOA proxy from NVDA
