"The text is interpreted according to the ISO/IEC 8859-1 (Latin-1) character
set [ISO/IEC-8859-1]."

Since there is no field to specify the encoding of an AVDictionary, only
UTF-8 is reasonable. Thus the conversion.

> APE tags do not have this.

I do not know the APE format. If the encoding of the tags is not specified,
then the format is brain-dead.
