Subject: [PATCH] ID3: Accept iTunes ID3 frames with space padded ID3v2.2 ID
 (#1403) (#1404)

iTunes 12 writes ID3v2.2 three-character sort frames (TSA, TSP, TST,
TS2, TSC) inside ID3v2.3 tags, padded to four bytes with 0x20 (space)
rather than 0x00, which is tolerated by '#ifndef NO_ITUNES_HACKS'
code. Enhance that code to also tolerate padding with a space.
