Avoid raising error when DB update fails?

[cjcolvar]

We're running into a problem in Avalon where the persisting fails due to DB column size issues which blocks even loading the encode record in the rails console making debugging hard. I wonder if we should take this comment seriously and not raise an error and stop the execution flow when persisting during the callback fails. We'll have to explore if there are any adverse effects if we don't raise an error and how we might surface the issue in a different way.

active_encode/lib/active_encode/persistence.rb

Line 32 in dc4b82c

model.update(encode_attributes) # Don't fail if persisting doesn't succeed?
