 *
 * Load all users' posts with only one additional request:
 * `User.include(users, 'posts', function() {});`
 * Or
 * `User.include(users, ['posts'], function() {});`
 *
 * Load all users posts and passports with two additional requests:
 * `User.include(users, ['posts', 'passports'], function() {});`
 *
 * Load all passports owner (users), and all posts of each owner loaded:
 *```Passport.include(passports, {owner: 'posts'}, function() {}); 
 *``` Passport.include(passports, {owner: ['posts', 'passports']}); 
 *``` Passport.include(passports, {owner: [{posts: 'images'}, 'passports']});

 * @param {String}, {Object} or {Array} include Which relations to load.
 * @param {Function} cb Callback called when relations are loaded
