Moved the string encoding guesser/converter to the Plugin.h header, so
it may be accessible from any plugin. I may make it a global member of
something eventually, but a static inline for such a simple function
should be fine for now.
This function facilitates converting arbitrary 8 bit encoded strings to
Unicode NSString objects. It should be used anywhere that UTF-8 is
expected, but not necessarily guaranteed, and where other 8-bit
encodings may also be supplied by a user's files.
Not using this setup for string inputs has already led to failed UTF-8
decoding resulting in nil NSStrings being passed to the inline array or
dictionary initializers, which results in crashes due to uncaught
exceptions.

Stream metadata could be in any encoding, not necessarily UTF-8. Handle
this in an appropriate way.

For streams offering a three way split in their ICY metadata blocks,
support album/artist/title using that three way split. Otherwise do the
usual of artist/title, or blank artist if there's no hyphen to split on.

Tiny files complete fetching within the scope of the open function, so
the URL session task would have completed already. Now the function will
accept the data, and allow reading it.

PluginController now uses the decoder if a properties reader class is not found.
PropertiesReaders should still be created if performance can be improved if code is only reading properties.
