[OVN] Remove OVN_GATEWAY_INVALID_CHASSIS artifact

This artifact is no longer used in the "Logical_Router" registers (in
the "options" field) to mark this "Logical_Router" as unhosted. A
"Logical_Router" is considered as unhosted if the gateway
"Logical_Router_Ports" have no "chassis" set.

This artifact is also used to create a "Gateway_Chassis" register
pointing to a inexisting invalid chassis called
"neutron-ovn-invalid-chassis". Any "Logical_Router_Port" not bound
to a chassis will have no value in "gateway_chassis" (NOTE1).

NOTE1: this is valid now with the current two OVN L3 schedulers that
use "gateway_chassis" to schedule the "Logical_Router_Port" of a
router. In a future, we can consider using "ha_chassis_group" for
scheduling.
