Encoding issues related to simplexml_load_string

[taylankasap]

simplexml_load_string in AbstractXmlOutputParser:transformXmlToArray method doesn't work for some files based on the encoding/charset.

Sample error (it says warning but it basically is an error since it makes the code not work at all):

Warning: simplexml_load_string(): Entity: line 54: parser error : Input is not proper UTF-8, indicate encoding !
Bytes: 0xFC 0x73 0x6E 0xFC in /Users/taylankasap/Sites/T/vendor/mhor/php-mediainfo/src/Parser/AbstractXmlOutputParser.php on line 14

Replacing line 14 with one of these makes it work but I'm not sure if this won't break anything else and work for all encodings. Writing tests for different encodings might be a good idea

// This
$xml = simplexml_load_string(str_replace('encoding="UTF-8"', 'encoding="ISO-8859-1"', $xmlString));
// or this
$xml = simplexml_load_string(utf8_encode($xmlString));

Example code & mp3 file that's not working:

$mediaInfo = new \Mhor\MediaInfo\MediaInfo();
$mediaInfoContainer = $mediaInfo->getInfo("track-7f01c33918c6070efca7851b14bb31a3.mp3");

track-7f01c33918c6070efca7851b14bb31a3.mp3.zip
Bytes 0xFC 0x73 0x6E 0xFC in the warning corresponds to the bold part of the artist name: "Erdal Hüsnü Kizilçay"
