Bug Description

When importing from a EasyWorship DB the user selects an encoding to use for the imported text. If the importer encounters an unknown character it currently throws the exception shown below. This should be handled better, for example by creating an error entry in the import-log.
See https://support.openlp.org/scp/tickets.php?id=3332 for example files.
