Title: Give an option to manually selecting the post ids

[posts_grid columns="4" rows="1" order_by="popular" order="DESC" include_posts="73,71, 77, 2129"]

It is responsible of the user to provide the number of posts to match the columns*rows.
The order of the posts is kept if order like "popular" is used which doesn't change id - in case the comments are off :)
