Custom unit specific icon

Starting with version 1.5.5 it is possible to give single units custom icons. That is especially useful if you want a certain role in your mission to have a special icon or if your groups squad structure and roles is completely different to what vanilla Arma provides.
In order to use this feature you have to set a variable on the unit it self. The value will be the path to a texture, be it inside the mission or a mod does not matter.
It is recommended to broadcast this variable to all machines using the broadcast flag in the setVariablecommand.
Both the icon on the radar and in the namelist will be affected by this!
Example:
_unit setVariable ["diwako_dui_radar_customIcon", "path/to/texture.paa", true];
