Title: Fulfill the API promise that we can lookup using IDs or screen names

The [Twitter API docs][1] state that we can lookup with either IDs or
screen names. The API now supports this in a convenient wrapper call.

In my app, I may not always have the screen name, or the ID of users. Having the ability to lookup in a single call a batch of a 100 people, some of which are IDs, some of which are screen names, is great for me. Unfortunately, the Twitter4j API didn't support the appropriate call. I have remedied the situation.

I haven't run the tests themselves, but I have run the code in my environment and I was able to do the obvious calls:

* no ids or screen names
* no IDs, 1 screen name
* no IDs, 2 screen names
* 1 ID, no screen names
* 1 ID, 1 screen name

Thanks for considering this patch.
