GridHelpers class

This class provides DependencyProperties for the number of rows and columns of WPF grids is available. This makes it possible to change the number of columns and rows of grids at runtime via databinding. I have taken the logic almost unchanged from Rachel Lim's blog on https://rachel53461.wordpress.com/2011/09/17/wpf-grids-rowcolumn-count-properties/ adopted. Thanks and respect to Rachel Lim on https://rachel53461.wordpress.com/
