Title: Create Heroku apps on the Cedar stack instead of Bamboo (default)

akatz tried to commit something like this in https://github.com/railsbridge/installfest/pull/27 and was told that Cedar requires a Procfile. Heroku's documentation (and my own experience) seem to state otherwise:

https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/procfile

> A Procfile is not necessary to deploy apps written in most languages supported by Heroku. The platform automatically detects the language, and creates a default web process type to boot the application server.

I did run into one problem: a Cedar app won't compile with ```gem 'sqlite3'``` sitting in your Gemfile. But the actual Curriculum instructions tell you to wrap sqlite3 in a ```group :development``` block, so I updated the Installfest instructions to match that pattern.
