Don't fallback to any default values for chain id

- Remove DefaultChainID(). User needs to suplly chain ID
  via either config or flag.
- Mark --chain-id as required by all tx commands.
- Fix gaiacli config values containing underscores.
  Underscore '_' character is not automagically translated
  into hyphen '-'. Viper values wouldn't be affected.
- Refresh gaiacli config tests

Closes: #810
