Summary0000644: Allow user to set tags to be recreated
DescriptionTag updates still occasionally fail. When such a failure occurs, the application should give the user the option to delete the existing tags:

"The tag update failed, most likely because the existing tag is corrupted. Would you like to delete the existing tag and recreate a new one?" [Yes] [No]

This should also be settable from the Tag configuration panel:
Global Settings:
[ ] Automatically delete and recreate tags if tag update fails

(not enabled by default)
TagsNo tags attached.
Fixed in build

When we implement this it would also make sense to allow the user to allways clean tags so that all garbage data is removed. Option could be:

[ ] Clean Tags before writing a tag

Note: if the options are enabled and the user clicks Synchronize Tag, then if:
MM is configured for ID3v2 only, v1 tags are cleaned
MM is configured for ID3v1 only, v2 tags are cleaned

This aspect of the functionality should only be implemented with the remaining fixes described in #647

note: it might be a good idea to only enable this function if the user has checked off:
[ ] Clean ID3v1 tags on update (this appears below the ID3v2 radio button)
[ ] Clean ID3v2 tags on update (this appears below the ID3v1 radio button)
