Description

When a user runs `master_create_distributed_table` and the UDF returns successfully, it returns `NULL`. This was confusing to a user as he didn't understand if the UDF was successful or not.

So, if we return true (or something similar), it might be more obvious to the user that it ran successfully.

The same applies to `master_create_worker_shards`.
