This is an older or more classical phrasing, so it's not really used outside of books anymore, except in one case (that I can think of.) That would be "ever so slightly." In that case (as in this case) it's just an intensifier to be used in order to emphasize the quality of the adjective. So, in this case, "ever so good" conveys the meaning that she is not just good, but very, very good (with good not meaning "skilled" and probably being closer to "well-behaved" in some way. Something that is "ever so slightly out of center" might be a few millimeters off of center, but is very close.
