- Ideally- LMS would handle Unicode in pathnames and tags fully

It does. Under most circumstances... but it's complicated. It depends on many factors like eg. the operating systems you're using to create those filenames, where you run LMS, where the files are stored, the protocols between them etc. If it's all one and the same system, then it should really just work. If a NAS is involved or similar it can become tricky.

- Next best- Strip out Unicode characters from pathnames and tags and
   index the file under the plain ASCII text

This you'd have to do. LMS can't change the pathnames.

- Worst case- Skip the "bad" file, but keep scanning, and put
   something helpful (like the file path) in the logs

That's what should be happening if things fail.

There's one line in your server.log which sounds like trouble:

[19-03-23 10:54:52.0005] Slim::Utils::Prefs::Namespace::savenow (338) Error: can't save /var/lib/squeezeboxserver/prefs/server.prefs: No such file or directory at /usr/share/perl5/Slim/Utils/Prefs/Namespace.pm line 327.

LMS seems to fail to save its settings. Please check permissions for that file.
