editing:id3encoding option is ignored by quodlibet

[lazka]

Original issue 1290 created by galkinvv on 2013-11-07T18:34:32.000Z:

I'm using quodlibet 3.0.2 with Python 2.7.5+ on Debian ~testing

- What did you try to do?
Start quodlibet for the firts time (to create config file)
Close quodlibet
Set id3encoding = cp1251 in config file
Start quodlibet, add folder with lot of mp3s with cp1251 encoding tags

- What did you expect to happen?
Songs load displaying cyrillic characters for tags.
This DID wok in some previous versions of quodlibet

- What did happen instead?
Songs load displaying "random" latin-1 chars for tags

I debugged the reason of problem: config is loaded in main() with config.init(const.CONFIG)

But this parameter is read from config by the id3FILE class earlier while loading of quodlibet/formats/_id3.py during

from quodlibet import browsers.

The attached quite ugly but simple patch solves the issue for me.

Thanks for debugging it. I went for reading it later so something like this doesn't happen again by accident.
