cmd/cigocacher: make --stats flag best-effort (#18761)

--auth is already best-effort, but we saw some CI failures due to
failing to fetch stats when cigocached was overwhelmed recently. Make
sure it fails more gracefully in the absence of cigocached like the rest
of cigocacher already does.

Updates tailscale/corp#37059
