avformat/id3v2enc: use UTF-16 in id3v2.3 APIC frame only if non-ASCII
This makes the encoding of picture descriptions consistent with the encoding of other text id3 tags and works better with iTunes, which does not display pictures with some UTF-16 picture descriptions (including a UTF-16 empty string, i.e. BOM + terminator). It also saves a few bytes. Example: ffmpeg -f lavfi -i sine=b=4 -f lavfi -i smptebars -map 0:a -map 1:v \ -codec:a libmp3lame -codec:v mjpeg -id3v2_version 3 \ -metadata:s:v comment="Cover (front)" -t 3 -y out.mp3 This example does not set a picture description (-metadata:s:v title=) so an empty string is written in the id3v2.3 APIC frame. Without this patch, UTF-16 is used and the cover art does not display in iTunes. With the patch the cover art is displayed. (Note that iTunes does not display or have a way to set picture descriptions, only the picture itself, but nevertheless has trouble skipping some UTF-16 descriptions.)
