We're not throwing an exception so the caller still needs to unwind itself as well and a `return false;` after the `MetaspaceShared::unrecoverable_writing_error();` makes it more obvious how the caller should handle it - it too should bail as early as it can

`MetaspaceShared::unrecoverable_writing_error()` will terminate the VM. So we will never return to the caller.
