Clean up ASIO set-property callback code
This reverts commit ce62764d6c0a72ec88eb433e1afd05b751225971, which
introduced inconsistent semantics for the underlying ASIO set handler
functions. The "external" `call` case expected the handler to return an
integer error code, while the "internal" `set` case expected the handler
to return a boolean status.
This also does a small refactor on the two similar `call` and `set`
functions to deduplicate, and adds ASIO.md to document the expected
semantics of the ASIO handlers.
The vast majority of user code in OpenBMC is still returning integers
from the callbacks (0/1/-1), but in most cases 0 was used to mean
failure, and 1 was used to mean success, so formalizing that the
callback should return a boolean value will not break things.
Tested: With accompanying dbus-sensors change
