PyMI contains a workaround to avoid returning boolean values for void MI functions, mostly in an attempt to remain compatible with other WMI libraries. The problem is that we're losing boolean return values. We could just drop the workaround and let PyMI return boolean values even for void functions, however that might break some applications. Instead, we'll add an optional argument called "keep_bool_ret_vals", which can explicitly request the boolean return values to be preserved.
