Allow add_custom_alert to take a SpritePath instead of a SignalID

Post by protocol_1903 »

I'd like to be able to use any SpritePath for custom alerts, instead of just a SignalID. It's more convenient to create a sprite for both the in-game rendering and the alert, instead of a virtual signal just for the alert.
