[vorbis] Problems with German umlauts and vorbiscomment

[Jon Brightwell]

The problem is, is there is more than one way to display text in a
system. Unicode + ANSI are the two standards and they are not
interchangable but they can be convertable between each other.

"ö" is the ansi equivalant of (unicode)"ö" 

The vorbis comment util needs to updated to handle unicode correctly.
