platform/x86: wmi: Require query for data blocks, rename writable to setable
The Microsoft WMI documentation requires all data blocks to implement
the Query Control Method (WQxx). If we encounter a data block not
implementing this control method, issue a warning, and ignore the data
block. Remove the "readable" attribute as all data blocks must be
readable (query-able).
Be consistent with the language in the documentation, replace the
"writable" attribute with "setable".
Simplify (flatten) the control flow of wmi_create_device a bit while
we are updating it for the above changes.
