Error searching for shows with ü (ascii 252 ) in the name but not in the file #621

Create file Neues Aus Buettenwarder.s01e01.avi

thetvdb search is failing with "Neues Aus Buettenwarder" due to not folding the 
u
in this case we should:

1. Not do abbreviation search if spaces are present ?
2. Do Neues Aus Buettenwarder site:thetvdb.com  (only works on Google for this 
show).
3. Do Neues Aus Buettenwarder site:imdb.com then cross map to thetvdb.com 
(works for all engines as imdb is very searchable - static urls )
4. Check thetvdb.com forums to see if folding will be supported.

BAD
http://www.thetvdb.com/api/GetSeries.php?language=all&seriesname=Neues Aus 
Buettenwarder

Good for Google only
[Neues Aus Buettenwarder site:thetvdb.com]

GOOD for yahoo/bing/google
[Neues Aus Buettenwarder site:imdb.com]

Also see Issue 613 which is related but to do with parsing of the name once it 
is in index.db

Fixed r1995 - more of a workaround than a fix.
