Adds a backpack to a unit (even non-local).

Beware, the backpack added with this command will be created on the PC local to the unit you are adding it to, even if executed on the server. Because of this, if non-local unit is the target and one tries to immediately access added backpack, the backpack returned will be Null. When adding backpack dynamically to a remote unit, wait until backpack is added (See Example 2)
