Most of the composite methods return a boolean result indicating whether
or not all of the child handlers successfully performed the operation.
If any of the children fails, the composite result is false.
We were previously using a mix of coding styles:
1. $success = $success && func()
2. $success &= func()
3. if (!func()) { $success = false; }
(1) works fine but results in more (re)writes to $success than are
needed.
(2) is logically equivalent but promotes the value to an integer, which
results in the composite function returning an integer instead of a
boolean. (#40)
(3) is nice because it leaves the $success flag alone until there's a
reason to change it to a failure.
This change updates all of the code to consistently use (3).
