Note. This is resubmitting #3042. The PR had been sitting out a while, and I had trouble with the merge/rebase. This is the same PR, with review feedback rolled in.
What does this PR do?
Makes the basic system checks use other means besides WMI. The WMI checks are having anecdotal reports of slow checks and other problems. This change removes use of the WMI check (though leaves the WMI checks available, since standalone WMI checks are supported).
Motivation
Support tickets.
Testing Guidelines
Additional Notes
While there are reports of the WMI check failing in unpredictable ways, it's not been reported in-house. Therefore, there's no conclusive proof this checkin is an improvement.
