Hi,

I discovered a small utf8 char problem in my setup
where I have a big local .cddb cache which contains
files which are not utf8 but locale (iso-8859-15)
encoded. In this case grip (3.2.0) gets the data from
the cached files, and doesn't display national
characters correctly, as the utf8 validation is missing.

Below is a tiny patch against src/discdb.c to fix this
problem.

>>> BTW, grip is **great**!!! <<<

Cheers, albrecht.
