gamdl populates Sort Title field with Title. #145

The files that I downloaded using gamdl have the Sort Title fields populated with the information from the Title field, which is causing incorrect sorting of tracks in iTunes for titles that start with "The", "A", "An", etc.

If I try to use TagScanner or MP3Tag to strip this field out, it doesn't have any effect on the information. Even if I use the Get Info panel in iTunes, I still cannot remove the Sort Name information in iTunes. In order to actually remove those strings, I have to manually reveal the Sort Name column in iTunes Song view, double-click on the field and delete it there.

The same thing is also happening for the Sort Artist field, so The Chemical Brothers end up being sorted to "T" instead of "C".

Additionally, the Album Sort field is also affected.
