ci: report connections failures with GitHub API

On occasion the scripts that use the GitHub API fail without logging any
useful error:

    ./scripts/get_github_labels.py --id=1568 --has-label=ci/skip/e2e
    Traceback (most recent call last):
      File "./scripts/get_github_labels.py", line 71, in <module>
        main()
      File "./scripts/get_github_labels.py", line 55, in main
        names = get_names(json)
      File "./scripts/get_github_labels.py", line 40, in get_names
        names.append(label['name'])
    TypeError: string indices must be integers

While debugging, it seems that the limit of API calls is reached:

    403 Client Error: rate limit exceeded

It is useful to have failure messages reported in the output of the CI
jobs for future potential troubleshooting.
