A recent change in the netlayer is now seeing exceptions wrapped in
a TorCtlException if an error occurs while setting up Tor.
So when an issue such as "Auth cookie not created" (#2398) occurs,
which was previously raised as an IOException, it was restarting Tor
rather than showing the error message to the user.
