Please describe the problem:
Some Unicode id3 tags with Chinese characters can be read by other id3 programs
but not by GStreamer apps.

For example, a file by the artist Faye Wong (王菲) shows up as gibberish
王菲
in GStreamer.  See output below more info:

$ id3v2 -l "王菲 - Live - 01.mp3" id3v1 tag info for 王菲 - Live - 01.mp3:
Title  :                                 Artist: 王菲
Album  : Live                            Year:     , Genre: Pop (13)

Steps to reproduce:
Problem does not seem dependent on Chinese characters (other Faye Wong tags in
Chinese work fine).  So not sure what triggers the proble.  But on the
problematic tags, the problem is seen everytime in a GStreamer app.

Expected results:


Does this happen every time?
Yes
