auto-save failure pic

When auto-save fails, the client see an error banner at the top of the page telling them to check their internet connection. Sometimes it is just a transient problem and the next save works. We should instrument how often this failure occurs for clients in production to see if we have an underlying problem with our auto-save or whether it is due to network issues. If transient failures are periodic, maybe we can silently retry before prompting user.

First step is instrumenting an event when this occurs.

Released fix http://git.eclipse.org/c/orion/org.eclipse.orion.client.git/commit/?id=775352f1b8b9c39529720cf609b603fad97cee5c

The inner function used this, which referred to the function not to the "object", so I had to switch to self.
