This change looks good to me.

I've lost the track of why we've been returning bool from those append methods (I'm afraid it's from my code).  If there're no other reasons maybe we can convert all the append to return void?

I think we can remove the return type because I am not seeing it is used from the append method in JS/V8BlobBuilder.cpp. I am going to submit a new patch.

It looks like bool return values have been removed. I guess this is because all functions returned true and the return values weren't used.

It would be nice to have a small comment about this (since it really isn't covered by the title).
