Addresses feature request #622

Adds a new on_error value for scaling checks which allows on_error = "scale". This value means that when metrics fail to be collected (syntax error, no metrics, datadog downtime), we can specify a check that should fail-safe - ie: scale towards max.

Some context: Datadog outage occurred right around our scale-up time - a lack of metrics meant nomad-autoscaler did nothing. We'd like it to fail open and automatically scale towards max when something has gone wrong.

This is a WIP and is currently missing tests - would love a hand or feedback!
