Title: Handle when heroku is down

I had a couple of requests 500 when Heroku recently had some API unavailability. Because of this, I want resque-heroku-autoscaler to ignore exceptions when attempting to connect to the API, and instead just try to autoscale next time. My solution here was pretty much cargo-culted from https://github.com/JustinLove/autoscaler/issues/30.
