Inspired by alphagov/search-api-v2#209
This adds the prometheus-client gem, and then uses it to send fact check emails metrics to prometheus via the pushgateway.
We can't use the conventional prometheus collector, because this code runs as a script, rather than a web process.
This should not be merged until we've set the PROMETHEUS_PUSHGATEWAY_URL environment variable.(edit: this is already set automatically for all apps)In terms of testing this, we could probably just deploy this branch to integration, then see whether we can see the new metric in prometheus, then put some broken emails in the inbox (?) and see if the count goes up?
