Scrolling Texture Plotter using CustomRenderTexture

Saw interesting question in the forums (link) about drawing plotter like data that would scroll up, got idea about custom rendertextures (since it was similar to this effect)

Basic idea:
– use CustomRenderTexture, double buffered so it can read from itself
– draw color32 array into texture2D
– use that texture2D in your CustomRenderTexture as the bottom pixel row
– CustomRenderTexture keeps scrolling up by reading 1 pixel below

Scrolling Perlin Noise Colors (bottom 1 pixel row comes from the Texture2D)
