chia init

WARNING: Do not share your private keys and passphrase with anyone else.

init checks for old versions of chia installed in the ~/.chia directory.
- If so, init migrates these old files to the new version:
  - config (including old SSL files)
  - db
  - wallet
  - Using config.yaml, updates wallet keys and ensures rewards go to the right wallet.

If no old version exists, init:
- Creates a default chia configuration
- Initializes a new SSL key and cert (for secure communication with the GUI).
