While it's a more thorny proposal for things like parallel execution (but likely still do-able), normal serial execution in execute() should be storing the results of each host+task execution run, and returning e.g. a map of host string to result value, instead of None.

This way folks that do rely on tasks returning real values are still able to obtain that data without stuffing it into `env`.
