"Album artist sort" is taken from "TSO2" frame, which is not standard,
but not necessarily controversial.  At least those two references
mentioned in code (Foobar2000 and Picard) agree on it, as does
https://id3.org/Developer%20Information

I think taglib is going wrong here.

This is nasty.  Those numbers are id3v1 genre indexes
(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ID3#Genre_list_in_ID3v1[12]).  Maybe we
need to add id-to-string mapping for them.

Are those genre numbers plain integers or are they enclosed in
parentheses, quotes or something else?

Yes.  I added some more frames so that MP3 metas would be
feature-compatible with Vorbis.
