Add Post and Term IDs to Listings

Description

Given how many functions and development rely on utilizing IDs for posts and terms, we still make it difficult, out of the box, to determine what the IDs are.

Yes we can do up some custom code with filters to add them to the listings, but people just getting started won't know that.

It wouldn't necessarily have to be checked by default, to reduce visual clutter, but it'd be awesome to just have someone click "Screen options" to toggle it on.

"People just getting started" - are these hypothetical people users or developers?

#2 @tw2113

Developers.

Users won't likely need the IDs ever, which is why I suggested it could be unchecked by default.

Let's not. A developer can figure this out as they learn - there are plugins, even.
