fix episode description truncation
PodcastEpisode.one_line_description() truncates episode descriptions to 120
characters. If the point of truncation happens to be a UTF-8 sequence, the
operation results in an invalid string, GTK+ freaks out:
GtkWarning: Failed to set text from markup due to error parsing markup: Error
on line 2 char 132: Invalid UTF-8 encoded text in name - not valid 'Гости:
Леонид Млечин Ведущие: Татьяна Фельге�...'
This also results in visual defects, like contents of a row in the episode list
changes when you move the mouse pointer above it. To deal with this situation
the string needs to be decodec from UTF-8 before truncation. There are two
places where this can happen, I'm not sure which one is best. I'm attaching a
patch which does this in two places.
