Summary: All BOOLAPI_NL functions in win32event swallow errors

Initial Comment:
SetEvent, ResetEvent, ReleaseMutex and SetWaitableTimer can still fail even after their handle argument has been validated (e.g. if the handle is closed or if it is a handle to a different object than the one expected by the function).

The attached patch simply removes the BOOLAPI_NL and replaces it with error checking BOOLAPI. Tests are also included.
