When you call save() on $this->Post, the insert ID is automatically
set in $this->Post->id;

In Cake 1.2, this is handled internally at the database driver level,
and in Cake 1.1 in Model::getLastInsertId().  In both cases, the data
is ultimately fetched from the driver in DboMysql::lastInsertId().
