try more to guess charset

I have a mp3 file with GBK chars saved with ISO-8895-1 in an id3v2 text frame.

I know currently gstreamer is trying to guess the original charset according
the current locale.

However there is a problem that if you locale is *.UTF-8, gstreamer regards
that the possible charset is just UTF-8. I think it can do more to guess the
possible charset with the prefix in *.UTF-8.

It might be that for example if current locale is zh_CN.UTF-8, gstreamer could
try zh_CN.GBK, zh_CN.GB2312 to guess the oirginal charset.

And I make a patch about this.
