packet timeout issue in packet relaying scenario between two Axon chains #272

Description

@ashuralyk

Summary

if change the packet timeoutHeight field from 0 to positive integer, the SendPacket event will trigger timeout process in Hermes framework, that's official regulation of IBC protocol in general, but this will cause problem in Axon scenario

Problem Definition

timeout packet would require packet proofs in target endpoint which has no related transaction hash, and this process is fine in Cosmos scenario because of the ABCI implementation, but it fails in Axon scenario because of the missing transaction hash in target chain, which in detail, is the transaction hash exists in the source chain instead

Proposal

not yet now, but I can try a few magic cases to walk around this issue
