Integrate uptime testing #72

The problem is there is no 'uptime' metric naturally occurring on cloudwatch. It would be nice to package with this an optional lambda function that pings on a fixed schedule, making that available in cloudwatch for metric selection (and it can be a 'recommended metric' or something in the UI).

I'm using the above script to add 'uptime' metrics and whatever else might be handy... i'll see if I can integrate this in.

Could you make me a contributor and I can publish on another branch instead of a fork?

Thank you for your suggestion! Uptime checks are certainly an attractive feature, but I don't feel like supporting it as the feature of LambStatus.

Some counterpoints:

Of course, your repo, your rules :)
